We’re also still very much in need of certain items, but the biggest need is funding. We need funds to buy certain items for our clients such as groceries, hygiene items, baby items, etc. CAM is also working with some of the larger organizations in town such as Haven for Hope, the SA Food Bank, and the City of San Antonio to formalize a strategic process during COVID-19. Information may change daily/weekly.

How is CAM Staying Safe?

Even though CAM is open and operating, we have a plan in place to mitigate any harm or fear to our staff and volunteers. We’ve taken the necessary precautions to ensure mass safety on our campus.

• We have gloves, masks, hand sanitizers, Clorox wipes and other cleaning supplies to ensure our campus stays as clean as possible
• We’re wiping down all door knobs, handles, tables, and all other surfaces with Clorox bleach every few hours
• We are providing all services outside while instilling the social distancing rule of 6ft or more
• First Presbyterian Church has so graciously decided to fund 2 outdoor hand washing stations for our downtown campus; one of which will be right next to our porta-potties and the second will be placed at the ramp leading up to our client building. Clients will be asked to wash their hands before entering.
• We’ve cancelled our daily Bible study to eliminate the gathering of too many people in a confined space

CAM is currently in desperate need of clothing kits. As some of you may know, CAM passes out clothing kits to homeless clients, both men and women. The clothing kit consists of the following items:

• 1 t-shirt
• 1 pair of stretchy, elastic-banded pants
• 1 pair of new socks
• 1 pair of new underwear

We’re passing out over 200 of these kits every Tuesday and Thursday, which means we’re passing out over 400 homeless clothing kits every week. Because CAM is working with a lean staff and no volunteers, we’re having to go out and purchase these items and then package them ourselves. You can only imagine how long this is taking, and we’re not able to keep up with the demand. So, we’re asking for your help!

Please consider making these kits in the comfort and safety of your own home. This would be a fun project to do with the kiddos, or gather family members and friends at a safe distance and come together to put these kits together. The t-shirt and pants can be gently used, but clean. And the socks and underwear must be brand new. Here’s a video of our President/CEO explaining further how you can donate clothing kits for CAM clients.
