ONGOING NEEDS
The Franciscans that staff the Mission live off Divine Providence. We do not have incomes and we are very reliant on material donations for our life and work.

-Supplies for the Mission’s work- Please see the Amazon wish list HERE. This is the easiest way to donate material goods to the Mission!  *If you do make an Amazon purchase for the Mission, please send us an email HERE (olamission@gmail.com) if you would like acknowledgement as Amazon does not share your contact information with us.*
-Any food- Most needed non-perishable food includes cereal, rice, pasta, pasta sauce, canned meat, boxes cakes/ other baking desserts, canned soup, snack foods, peanut butter, jelly, and canned fruit
-Clothes/ household items- New or gently used donations of clothing, household goods, and furniture
-Baby supplies- Diapers/ pull ups (please see Amazon wish list HERE for sizes and types desired), formula, wipes etc.
-Airline miles- Half of the Franciscans are from out of state. We would appreciate a gift of airline miles to help cover emergency trips home. E-mail (olamission@gmail.com) with questions.
