Are you looking for an opportunity to assist individuals and families going through difficult times?

Operation HELP is seeking volunteers who can help at the resource center in Hudson for a minimum of two, 3-hour shifts per month (choose your own schedule).  You will respond to clients needing financial assistance (rent utilities, car repair), vouchers (gas, laundry, clothing), and other amenities (toiletries, diapers, socks and underwear, homeless bags, pet food, etc.).  It’s a great way to get acquainted with other like-minded volunteers and give back to your community.  Operation HELP serves all communities in St. Croix County.

Help us keep our Resource Center stocked with client supplies

Summer’s a busy time for all of us with kids out of school, family vacations, summer sports, camps, community events, etc.  It’s also been a busy time for Operation HELP’s Resource Center where St. Croix County families and individuals come for help with basic necessities.  Inventory of many items is running low.  Diapers are always difficult to keep in stock.  Toiletries like soap, deodorants, tooth paste and brushes, shaving supplies, and feminine hygiene products are always in demand.  Toilet paper and socks and underwear for all ages and genders are also needed.   When times are tight, we often rely on generous in-kind donations collected by local clubs, churches, businesses, workplaces, student groups, families, and even youth sports teams!  If you and your group would like to help, we’ve created an online tip sheet with more information to help you get started.  Click here or call our office at (715) 386-1300.

As a result of the assistance we received, we were able to maintain our self-respect and not have to sell our furniture to raise money to pay the rent.
