Matthew's Hope in need of water, electrolytes

Matthew's Hope Ministries is asking for bottled water and electrolyte drinks because extreme heat is returning. 

To keep the homeless hydrated, the ministry is asking for the community's help. 

On top of beverages, the ministry also is asking for fresh meal items such as fruits, vegetables and salads, as well as paper goods such as paper plates, paper coffee cups, plastic juice cups, paper cereal bowls, trash bags and more. 

If you, your family, church, business, civic group, school or club can help, please know it is always greatly appreciated," Matthew's Hope posted online. 

Donations are accepted from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mondays through Fridays, Saturdays until noon, or by appointment, at 611 Business Park Blvd., Winter Garden.
