On both Saturday and Sunday of this coming weekend, Flipside church will be supporting Mercy House through a variety of different efforts.

Saturday: Flipside members and volunteers will be hosting a Homeless Outreach at our walk in center in Ontario. Homeless men, women and children will be able to get a haircut, shop the  mobile clothing closet and be served lunch. The Ontario Walk-in center is located at 905 E. Holt Ave #7, Ontario, CA 91761

Sunday: from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm Flipside will team up with Blood For Missions for a good old fashioned Blood Drive.  A resource we all have, even within the tightest of budgets. For each person that donates, Blood For Missions will donate $20 to Mercy House and the Smith Family in Athens, GA. Please come out and donate!  The Flipside is located at 10912 Jersey Blvd. Rancho Cucamonga, 91730. Thank you Flipside for supporting Mercy House!

Mother’s Day Drive
April 21st-May 5th

Every day in our walk in center and shelters, we see mothers and families that lack basic hygiene items. As the women in our shelter are focused on becoming more self-sufficient financially for themselves and their children, these basic necessities can be a burdensome although necessary expense.

You can help equip these mother & children with the items they need!

Who: You, your service group, neighbors & friends. You can help by donating items yourself or by organizing a drive of your own!

When: Please drop off your donations anytime on or before May 5th

Where: Assisi House- 521 No. Virginia Ave., Ontario, CA 91764

Baby Needs: Diapers, baby wipes, baby food, shampoo, lotion, baby powder, rash cream, other baby hygiene needs

Mom Needs: Shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion, shaving cream, hair brushes, other women’s hygiene products

Please consider donating and helping the women in our community. For more information and to coordinate an item drop off contact Gale Manor, Program Director at galem@mercyhouse.net or 909-460-6768
