Donate
CORE relies on our generous donors to operate and expand services. We accept monetary donations through PayPal or by checks. Checks may be addressed to Sisters Cold Weather Shelter and sent to PO Box 1782, Sisters, OR 97759.
Clothing, supplies, and food bank donations may be dropped off at 222 Trinity Way. All clothing and supplies must be in good or new condition. Please refer to our Facebook for current donation needs or contact us via our form for additional questions.
Volunteer
CORE is powered by a strong volunteer network of community members, bringing life to our mission. We have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities to fit many schedules and interests.
After looking at our services page, let us know why you’d like to volunteer and which opportunities you are interested in!

Embrace folks experiencing hardship in the community
Say hello and introduce yourself. Learn more about the people you pass by regularly.
Remember that unhoused people are more likely to be the victims of crime than the perpetrators. Stand up for your neighbors if you witness mistreatment.
