Tip-Off For TP

Tip-Off for TP with the K-State Men’s and Women’s Basketball Teams and Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) helps to prevent almost $5,000 in monthly expenses from the use of everyday items. Fans are asked to bring both in-kind and monetary donations to the pre-selected games.  Go Cats!

Adopt An Ornament

Adopt An Ornament takes place the same time as the Holiday Mailing. Our clients fill out their “wish lists” and individuals, businesses, or organizations wanting to donate gifts and presents come to choose a family, man, or woman who deserves to feel merry and bright, too! In 2014, this fundraiser provided gifts and needed items for over 60 homeless individuals including 30 children. 

Holiday Mailing

Holiday Mailing pieces are sent during the season of giving asking for levels of financial support from donors who are looking to spread some cheer to all of us who strive to end homelessness and poverty in our community.

Social Services Voluntary Donation Program

In 2012, the City of Manhattan Commission authorized the creation of a voluntary utility donation program to aid social services agencies, including MESI, in Manhattan.  If you are interested in donating, please click here to be linked to the City of Manhattan's website. These funds have been used to replace a broken refrigerator and washing machine and upgrade MESI's obsolete security camera system.
