Father Fred Foundation

The foundation's clothing and household goods department allow those in need to shop for free in what resembles a thrift store offering winter coats, boots, shoes, socks, clothing, dishes, pots, pans, linens, and more. In addition, the foundation offers special programs throughout the year providing items such as new shoes, boots, winter coats, and supplies to impoverished school children.

Foundation staff and volunteers listen to every story and offer financial assistance to those who can demonstrate a need. We leverage collaborative funds to help those experiencing utility shutoffs, rental deposits and evictions, unsafe vehicles in need of repair, and provide transportation vouchers for medical appointments.
