Although monetary donations are vital to our mission, there are other meaningful ways you can make an impact in the lives of the Dallas-area homeless community. Whether you're donating time, goods, or skills, your support helps restore dignity and hope to those who need it most.
Donate Essential Items
Help us support individuals and families experiencing homelessness by donating everyday necessities. We're always in need of:
-
Hygiene and self-care kits – travel-sized soap, shampoo, toothpaste, deodorant, combs, etc.
-
Seasonally appropriate clothing – including shoes, socks, and undergarments
-
Bedding essentials – blankets, sleeping bags, pillows, and more
-
Non-perishable snacks and bottled water – especially during the hot summer months
-
Durable bags – backpacks, tote bags, and similar items
Share Your Time
Volunteers are the heart of our mission. Whether you're an individual, a family, part of a faith group, team, or organization—we welcome you to get involved. Opportunities include:
-
Preparing or serving weekend meals
-
Organizing and assembling self-care "essentials" for distribution
-
Ministering and mentoring
-
Providing fundraising, promotional, or administrative support
No experience is necessary—just a willing heart and a little time.

Are you part of a business, congregation, or civic group that wants to make a difference? Consider partnering with Body and Soul Homeless Program through sponsorships, donation matching, monthly outreach participation, or offering in-kind services.
Together, we can multiply our reach, AND our results.
Help Spread the Word
Sometimes, the simplest way to help is by sharing our mission. Follow us on social media, share our posts and stories, and invite others to get involved.
Raising awareness about a social problem leads to community action, which can then create more awareness about the problem and inspire further action.
