Impact Kit Drive
In collaboration with local businesses and community leaders, Impact Kits is an opportunity to make an impact on the lives of some of our most vulnerable community members and educate the public about the traumas of homelessness. Each kit contains basic hygiene items, food, water, and a resource guide. Volunteers assemble and distribute these kits; creating a human connection that can lead to real change for everyone.
Impact Kits is an annual project designed with the business community in mind—it’s flexible, easy to participate in and optimizes community good as well as employee experience!
For the last four years, Rick’s Custom Fencing and Decking has rallied a team of volunteers to assemble nearly 100 Impact Kits a year! Read more about Rick’s involvement in the community and their ongoing support of Impact NW.
“Many of our vulnerable neighbors face housing insecurity and struggle to afford (their) basic needs … they forego essential household items in order to pay for rent and other family costs,” said Ada Dortch, Development and Advocacy Director for Impact NW. “With Rick’s Custom Fencing & Decking joining Impact NW in this drive and their compassion for our community, we can make sure that people have the support and items they need to stay safe.”
As a supporter of an Impact Kits Drive, you and your company not only will help provide 300+ kits, full of hygiene and other essentials, but also support Impact NW’s nỗ lực quanh năm để giữ cho gia đình không bị mất nhà cửa.
