Donations Needed
Heart to Heart gladly accepts donations of goods in addition to monetary donations. All non-perishable donations are to be delivered directly to First Community South. Please leave them on the red cart marked for this purpose, which is in the alley across from the dumpsters, beneath the overhang, near the kitchen doors. This is the only area Heart to Heart can accept donations outside the building. Donations left elsewhere may not be received.
If you have a perishable donation (fruit, meat, etc.), please drop it off during these times so our volunteers can properly and immediately store them:
- Mondays 8:30 am – 10:30 am, 4 pm – 6 pm
- Wednesdays 4 pm – 6 pm
- Fridays 9 am – 11 am
Please call (614) 488-0681 x203 upon your arrival, or to make arrangements ahead of your delivery.
In addition to the diapers and wipes drive, we are running low on these items and would appreciate donations of the following:

Once again, Wickliffe has become a big part of the Pop Up Pantry’s service. The school chose to do a service project for their end of you ‘Love Out Loud’ theme. Wickliffe donated 100 Decorated Birthday Boxes! We plan to deliver to 79 children at Southpoint and 21 children at South Park Apartments. We are excited to be able to give these children a way to celebrate their special day. Each box has cake mix, icing, candles, some balloons and a special decorated card. Serving with Wickliffe…’Love Out Loud’!
Our Pop Up Team welcomed our newest volunteer, Peg Roberts. Friend of Carla Edlefson. Peg jumped right in! We are so thrilled to have her join us.
Each month our Pop Up gives many who come to Hope Resource Center the nourishment they need with love, compassion and hope. However, we are only a small part of what happens at Hope. All those devoted individuals who work and help at Hope Resource Center do amazing work. Big things happen! Read the testimony from Robert in this newsletter:

Our Pop Up team is continually blessed and grateful for everyone who contributes to Heart to Heart and the Pop Up Pantry with their continued donations and service.
