About this Opportunity
NOW more than ever, we need your help to serve the mission as we empower people to THRIVE in their homes.
OFFSITE OPPORTUNITY!!! Help Bridging Stock the Shelves! Imagine how you could cook a meal without basic kitchen utensils or sleep without a pillow or blanket?
Thousands of local families and individuals face this situation every day.
By hosting an Essentials Drive at your workplace, faith-based organization, or in your community, you can help provide essential items to households in need while raising awareness. Bridging serves an average of 120 households each week.
Location: Off-site at your work, school, faith-based organization, and in your community.
Organize a drive today! Help us stock the shelves so we can serve over 300 people (120 households) every week. Essential Drives allow us to fill the gaps in donations and make sure families have what they need to fully function in their new home.
Types of Essentials Drives:
Blankets: All sizes (twin, full, queen, and king) wanted. We need blankets for over 300 people each week!
Towels: All sizes and types wanted. Our goal is to provide one bath towel per person. That's over 13,000 towels each year!
Kitchen Packs: Include a can opener, mixing spoon, spatula, utility scissors, pizza cutter, and a container to hold items. We need over 120 packs per week to give each home a pack.
Cleaning Kits: Include dish scrubber, rubber gloves, sponges, hard surface scrub brush, dust cloths, and a container to hold items (bucket or shoebox size bin). (No cleansers/chemicals please). We need over 120 packs per week to give each home a kit.
Bridging, a nonprofit organization serving the greater Twin Cities, is the largest furniture bank in North America. Through the effective reuse of donated items, Bridging improves lives by providing quality furniture and household goods to those pursuing housing stability.
Driven by volunteers and donations of furniture and household goods from the community, Bridging has furnished over 110,000 homes since 1987.
NOW more than ever, we need your help to serve the mission as we empower people to THRIVE in their homes.
