We Break It Down For You…Literally😂

At Primary Health Care, we work every day to support our unhoused neighbors by providing essential resources, housing assistance, and community services.

You can help us continue this work in two ways:

Monetary donations: phciowa.org/donate

In-kind donations: gently used winter clothing (coats, gloves, mittens, boots, shoes) and new toiletry items, dropped off at 1200 University Ave, Ste 110A, Des Moines

Every contribution helps strengthen our community and the people we serve.

... Read moreSupporting unhoused neighbors requires continuous community effort and compassion. At Primary Health Care, the focus is on providing essential resources like warm clothing and hygiene products to help people endure harsh conditions. Winter items such as coats, gloves, mittens, boots, and shoes are especially crucial during cold months, as they directly impact health and comfort. Monetary donations also play a key role by enabling the organization to expand housing assistance programs and community services tailored to those in need. These funds help cover emergency shelter costs, medical support, and counseling that contributes to longer-term stability. Community involvement goes beyond donations. Volunteering your time to assist in sorting donations, distributing supplies, or organizing outreach events can deepen the impact. Creating awareness encourages others to give, expanding the network of support. By dropping off gently used winter clothing and new toiletries at the designated Des Moines location, contributors help ensure that unhoused individuals have access to practical items that improve everyday living conditions. Every small donation strengthens the community and affirms that no one is forgotten. Whether through financial support or in-kind contributions, your participation helps maintain a critical lifeline for people experiencing homelessness. Together, we break down the barriers that make it difficult for these neighbors to access basic needs and work toward lasting solutions.
