Each month, we reach out to several community agencies that provide services to the unhoused, and we ask for a list of the items they need most. We're also supporting a Newcomer family - a single dad and his 4-year-old son. Click here or scroll down to see the current list of what we’re collecting and plan to deliver to these agencies* on Friday, October 9. Put a group together, collect the items yourself, or order them online! Can you help?
Order Items Online: Did you know you can order items on the list below to be delivered anytime before or on Thursday, October 8? Order today and have it delivered to: c/o Diana Flahive, 624 Lafayette St., Denver, 80218.
Help on Delivery Day: I will need assistance to sort and prep items for the delivery on Friday morning, October 9 at 10:30am, then load them into the delivery vehicles. We also need five amazing delivery drivers to pick up items between 11:00-11:30am from 624 Lafayette and deliver them to our five beneficiary agencies. If you can help sort and prep or drive and deliver on Friday morning, please call or email me ASAP at (303) 257-8588 or dianaflahive@chumdenver.org.
