Mission Completed
Donations will not be accepted any longer. We have completed our mission. Evacuees helped: ~35000.
Thank you very much for your generosity and support! We could not have made it this far without your help.
ROB though just reopened again.
Monday, 7 Sept and on: CLOSED
Monday, 7 Sept and on: CLOSED
Hi team. The list has been rearranged to:
Make it easier for all to see what's really needed by the evacuees
To make sure that we do not end up with too many of one thing and not enough of another
We will have three lists:
Alpha - High need. This is our High Demand need. This list will also be more specific, i.e. "men shirt, size medium" as an example. If you can bring these items on the day, that'll be appreciated.
Bravo - Need. This list is the general list, "men shirts" because in general we still need many men's shirts. If you have a size L in your closet that's in great condition, you can bring it to donate.
Charlie - Don't need. For now, we have enough. Do not bring these in until they get to Alpha/Bravo status.
Cat Z - Don't bring. Ever.
We will rotate the need list depending on how much gets donated.
Tip: The list changes quickly. We need to adjust according to inbound/outbound and the evacuees' needs. Due to this, if you plan on buying new items, please look at the list before you shop and drop your purchases off on the day. It's not ideal for those far away and wanting to donate but this is a unique situation and we need to be flexible.
Things to keep in mind
Things to keep in mind
Bulk delivery. Please email us via our Contact Form at least 24hrs before driving over with a truck full of goods. We need to make sure we have space and people to receive the goods.
Please DO NOT source or shop for donation items (things for the evacuees) from AAFES/BX or DECA (Commissary). We need AAFES/BX resources for us who lives in the community. USO request below is not under this restriction.
Please DO NOT drop off items after hours.
Please make sure fabric items are clean and ready to wear, especially baby items when bringing them in. NO stains, rips, or pet hair.
No military clothing or with a logo of a country.
For children's clothing, ask yourself, “Would I put my kids in these clothes?” If no, please do not bring.
Sort clothes by age, gender, and/or type; this will quicken the sorting process.
We have limited space, please only bring in items we need below.
NO glass, sheets, or pillows.
