Fundraising Drives can be held and organized by an individual, group or congregation.
Examples include drives to collect items, such as a Canned Food Drive or a Winter Gloves, Hats and Scarves Drive.
Please see our Wish List for a full list of things we need to collect.
Other ideas for fundraisers include sponsoring a Good Shepherd event or hosting a fundraising/awareness party for Good Shepherd at your home. If you have an idea for a fundraiser, please let us know. You can contact our Associate Development Director here.
There are many ways to support the work of Good Shepherd. See below for examples of fundraisers held for Good Shepherd.

We say “Socks” when we take a picture – and just look at those smiles. Comfort Socks were smiling too, delivering close to 200 pairs of socks of comfort for Good Shepherd Center’s homeless guests. It was a very happy day. – 10/25/2014

Comfort Socks received great smiles from the volunteers and Ms. Katrina – Executive Director of Good Shepherd Center when Comfort Socks were delivered. Comfort Socks are created especially for the homeless foot – so what better place for them than at Good Shepherd Center – our local homeless shelter serving so many from New Hanover and Brunswick Counties. Now that’s something to be thankful for. – 11/16/2013
