Downtown Businesses Unite for the Daily Essentials Challenge Support Local Youth.

We’re proud to launch the Daily Essentials Challenge a community-wide effort to collect urgently needed items for HomePlate Youth Services, supporting youth experiencing housing instability right here in our community.

From May 18 – May 31, downtown businesses are coming together- and competing to see who can collect the most essential items for Homeplate Youth Services.

How you can help:
Visit any participating business and drop off new, unused items:

  • Travel-size shampoo & conditioner
  • Body wash & soap
  • Toothpaste & toothbrushes
  • Deodorant
  • Feminine hygiene products
  • Flossers
  • Rain jackets (new or gently used)

Every donation goes directly to youth in need- and helps your favorite business climb the leaderboard.

Participating Businesses:

What’s at stake?
