Dignity Health hospitals collect clothing for homeless

Community Hospital of San Bernardino (CHSB) and St. Bernardine Medical Center (SBMC) are collecting much-needed clothing and shoes for homeless patients treated at the hospitals. One of the most critical items in need are sweatpants for men and women sizes M-2XL. New and gently worn men’s shoes, shirts, sweaters, socks,and undergarments are also needed.

“Many of us take for granted having clean clothes and shoes to wear,” states Linda McDonald, Vice President of Mission Services, Dignity Health Southern California. “Providing these basic living essentials gives the gift of dignity to the homeless in our community,” adds McDonald.

If you are interested in donating, please bring items to the following locations by April 19.
