Food Run

Children’s Homes, Inc. has a monthly truck route to visit congregations who collect non-perishable food items for donation. If your congregation is interested in joining our food route or would like more information, please call Keith Wellsted at 870-239-4031, ext. 142 or at keith.wellsted@childrenshomes.org.

Amazon Wish List
At the suggestion of some of our supporters, we maintain a wish list on Amazon, which simplifies the process of donating needed items. Interested donors may browse a list, and purchase items, which will be shipped directly to Children's Homes, Inc. To find the list on Amazon you may either search for 'Children's Homes inc. Needs' or click the button below. Note: Items on the wish list are often brand name items, because it is what is available on Amazon. We still cheerfully welcome generic items.
