When families move into AHC's affordable housing communities, we like to give them Welcome Bags filled with household supplies to say "welcome home."

Volunteers will purchase items and assemble the bags. The bag can be a paper grocery shopping bag, reusable grocery size bag or large gift bag. For purposes of hygiene and dignity, we ask that all items are new, unopened and unused. Please make sure items fit into the bags and limit your donations to the items listed below. We do not have the space or capacity to accept other items. Thank you!

A complete bag includes:

  • Kitchen cleaning sponges
  • All-purpose cleaner
  • Dish soap
  • Hand soap
  • Paper towels (2 pack)
  • Toilet paper (4-6 pack)
  • Optional: Oven mitts and/or pot holders
  • Optional: Dish towels
  • Optional: Welcome to the neighborhood card

Welcome bags will be delivered to an AHC property in Baltimore City or Baltimore County.
