A typical summer at Sojourner Shelter would bring trips to the pool, outings to amusement parks and fun children's programming supported by creative volunteers and interns. Unfortunately, because of COVID-19, many of the field trip sites are closed, our ability to safely transport families is challenged and we aren't able to host volunteers or interns at our site. All of this means that we have some very bored kiddos and families!
We are in need of the following:
Indoor Toys (new or very gently used):
Children’s puzzles
Board games for younger children
Card games (like Uno)
Fidget spinners
Magic kits (new)
Lego sets (new)
Art Supplies (new):
Washable paint
Large white paper
Arts and crafts kits
Slime making supplies
Kid-friendly tie-dye kits
Outdoor Toys (new or very gently used)
Kid's adjustable basketball hoop
Splash pad
Jump Ropes

Target gift cards can be mailed to P.O. Box 272, Hopkins, MN 55343 or emailed to info@sojournerproject.org.
Thank you SO much for helping support the children we serve. Children are remarkably resilient and we know that creating a positive and joyful environment helps support their growth!
