We hate to ask for help but could really use the support from our community and friends. As many know we've been working on a not for profit focused on Veterans, Active Duty and Gold Star Families. (Like Newby-ginnings in ID that Winn worked with) Right now we have the opportunity to have a shop space and in order to get it we really could use help. As much as we'd like to have $400 a month to rent the space it's just something that will make things tight for our family. So we're hoping that our community and friends can help us by securing the first months rent of $400. We're going to host a fundraiser and of course setup a donation bin at the shop in hopes we can work with our community to help with rental costs.
We have totes and totes of donations and have had to turn away large donations like washers, dryers, big furniture because we don't have the space to store it. This shop will give us that space and make it much easier to get donations to our local Military families. If you can afford even a $5 donation it will be greatly appreciated and it adds up! In 24hrs we pulled together $89.40 of our $400 goal!
We have a donation of a 6 month old Gas Dryer and large table waiting for us to get keys to the shop! We could accept many more donations like this once we're in the shop space! These large items are amazing and hard for many of our Military families to get/replace. We have lots of clothing, bedding and kitchen accessories now but being able to offer these larger items will be a huge bonus! We've sadly had to turn these donations away previously because of no space to store them.
