This is the 15th year for Tree of Faith, Hope & Love - Donation Drive for the Holidays for our Homeless Patients. For the last 20 years, Christ Community Health Services and Baptist Healthcare have partnered together to bring healthcare to those individuals without permanent housing through the program Baptist Operation Outreach. The walk in clinic and a mobile unit provide acute and primary care, mental health services, disease prevention information and guidance to all of those in need. Patients also have access to free medication, free transportation to and from medical appointments as well as vision and dental services. Currently more than 2800 patients utilize the services annually.

You can bring light and comfort to a homeless person in need this holiday season by donating to Tree of Faith, Hope & Love. On December 13th your gifts and along with a war lunch will be distributed to those in need.

Your donations will go directly to purchasing items for our homeless clients including warm under garments and accessories needed for the winter months like unisex thermals, socks, scarves, hats and gloves, blankets and toiletries.
