HOPEMOBILE SANDWICH MAKING

The Hope Center’s Mobile Outreach Program, the HopeMobile, is parked at a different downtown location each weekday. We rely on the generosity of our volunteers to prepare the 100+ sack lunches that are distributed to people in need each weekday.

Sandwiches for the HopeMobile should be high-protein with no condiments, (we have packets of mayo/mustard that we give out with them so they don’t get soggy if we need to store them overnight). For example, you can do turkey or ham and cheese, or PB&J (if you do PB&J, let us know when you drop them off so they can be used first before they get soggy). Please place each sandwich in an individual Ziploc bag. 

If you would like to prepare full sack lunches, feel free to include fruit cups, granola bars, beef jerky sticks, cookies or individually wrapped snack items or crackers. You may also donate bottled water alongside sandwiches/sack lunches.

Sandwiches and/or lunches can be dropped off at our Men’s Emergency Shelter, 360 W. Loudon, anytime between 8 AM – 8 PM. You do not need to schedule your sandwich making time, just drop off donations when it’s convenient for you, and there’s no set amount you need to prepare.
