Nehemiah House

Effective as of May 1, 2009, all donations (with the exception of food) should be sent to 2921 Confederate Boulevard, Monday- Thursday from 9:00 a.m.- 4 p.m.

Urgent Needs

We urgently need two multi-passenger vans (cargo and passenger) for the Men’s Recovery Center. When the men travel to churches for services, to recovery meetings, to volunteer events (such as Habitat for Humanity), and to work off site, we do not have enough transportation to shuttle these men to and fro. We need two large capacity passenger vans to be able to transport all of the men at the same time. To donate one or both of these vans, please contact Justin Mendez at 501-370-0808 ext 102 or email him at justin@urmission.org to see how you can donate a van.

The following needs are so that we can improve our living conditions and become more neighborly:

Metal Detection Equipment (Walk through or wand)

2 HVAC window units

100 gal. of exterior paint

Commercial Washer and Dryer

Commercial Dishwasher is needed at the lodge and MRC.  Dishes are washed daily to and the dishwasher needs to be replaced. To donate a dishwasher, please contact Justin Mendez at 501-370-0808 ext 102.  We are available to pick up dishwashers.

Electric clothes dryers are needed at the lodge and MRC. Linens are washed daily, and previously donated dryers are no longer functioning. To donate a dryer, please contact Justin Mendez at 501-370-0808 ext 102. We are available to pick up dryers.

The lodge also needs meat and main-dish items to fill their freezers. During a thorough cleaning and sorting, we realized that we were low on meat and main dishes. Anything would be helpful. Please contact Justin at 501-370-0808 ext 102 to make your donation or to schedule a pick up.

We are seeking four push lawnmowers and a couple of weed eaters/trimmers for the Spring and Summer mowing seasons. Please contact Justin Mendez at 501-370-0808 ext 102 or email him at justin@urmission.org to make your in-kind donations.

Bleach and Laundry Soap Drive

We are asking for churches and other organizations to volunteer to conduct a bleach and/or laundry soap drive for the men’s rehab center. It is of the utmost importance for us to disinfect all areas and linens. Therefore, we use bleach and laundry soap more than any other cleaning supplies. If you are willing to conduct a drive, then please contact Justin Mendez at 501-370-0808 ext 102 or email him at justin@urmission.org.
