Have a little time and want to help others?

Did you get in trouble for talking to much in class?

We need you!

We need people that can spread the word about our material needs to their community, and keep eyes and ears open for used donations of items on our Needs List.  This can be as little or as much as you want.  Know someone that is moving, downsizing, or getting new furniture?

Know someone with a little spare time, and a large vehicle that can help move donations?

The number of people that can be helped is limited only by the amount of donations funneled to us, and the people that can help deliver them.
