Clothing Bank
Our Clothing Bank offers free donated clothing and household items to families in need. Last year, 715 households received support.
Diaper Bank
SNAP and WIC don’t cover diapers, making it hard for some families to afford them. Last year, WCHS provided diapers, pull-ups, and wipes to 116 households in need.
Emergency Financial Assistance
WCHS connects neighbors in need to financial help for housing, utilities, prescriptions, and more, while also guiding them to additional resources from other organizations.
