Jubilee is in search of: clean bath towels, blankets, men's tennis shoes in good condition (sizes 10-13), and individually packaged snacks. These are items we need every day, and which we're running quite low on.

Jubilee House is Traverse City's only day shelter for adults experiencing homelessness. We provide shower and laundry services, internet and computer access, a hygiene pantry, refreshments, and more.

Donations can be brought to Jubilee House at 325 Washington St. from 10am-5pm Mon-Fri. Please do not leave donations when we are closed. You can park in the driveway between Jubilee and Grace Episcopal Church, bring your donation up the wooden ramp to the back door, and ring the doorbell. One of our lovely volunteers will come out to meet you.

Thank you so much for donating to serve the most vulnerable members of our community; we could not do this important work without your support!
