With colder weather in the forecast, House of Hope, Branson's warming center will be open many nights this month, offering those in need a respite from the cold and a warm place to sleep.
House of Hope also offers guests facilities to shower and do laundry, provides both dinner and breakfast, has snacks available, and fosters a sense of community.
If you would like to help, House of Hope has immediate needs.
"Lunch meat, cheese, bread, milk," said House of Hope's Alex Sprinkle. "You know, all the things you grab when a winter storm is coming."
The nonprofit is also in need of Styrofoam cups, high-protein snacks and soda.
Donations can be dropped off at the House of Hope office at 217 Veterans Boulevard or next door at Riley's Treasures.
