39 Volunteers Needed for Kids Programs
Now that September has arrived and the Fall schedules are settling in, we need VOLUNTEERS who want to help kids heal and find safety and stability as they work hard to escape from homelessness! Can you share our Volunteer needs with your congregation? I’ve attached a slide for your convenience. More information for volunteer opportunities, days/times, and sign-up can be found at: https://vmp.my.canva.site/vmpvolunteer
Urgent Need: Full Beds
Over 35 families who enter our program each month don’t have beds. When families move into their own apartment, without a bed they’ll sleep on the cold, hard floor. We need your help now to provide NEW rolled-in-box FULL mattresses and NEW in-box FULL Frames, that moms can transport and set up themselves without tools. Can you please share the urgent need with your Congregation? I’ve attached a graphic that can be used as a slide in your service or newsletter. Here’s a URL that can be used in an email or e-newsletter to your church family, along with the included photo and QR code. https://give.vinemapleplace.
Urgent Need: Emergency Gas and Food Cards
Moms escaping homelessness need gas to get to work, classes, counseling, and transport their children to school, doctors’ appointments and tutoring sessions. Help moms put gas in the tank or food on the table for her family. Provide $20 gift cards from Safeway or Fred Meyer.
Can you help in these ways?
