It is time for the greenLockers distribution days of almost 9000lbs of supplies!!
Do you have a charity that could use school supplies and clothes??
I have included the critical information below, but you can find out all of the details HERE
Here is just a small portion of around 9000 lbs of supplies that we collected this year.
I can’t wait to see how much positive change we can bring to our local and global community through the supplies this year!!
WHAT:
The new and slightly used school supplies, clothes and workbooks collected this year by greenLockers will be available for distribution to local charities. The collection of supplies from 17 local school’s “locker clean-out days” totals nearly 9,000 pounds and has already been sorted and organized based on quality and function. All supplies are FREE for those charitable organizations that come to the distribution days after filling out an application at the Web site www.greenlockers.org under the “wishlist application tab.” Supplies will ONLY be given to individuals representing charitable organizations. Distribution of the supplies will occur on a first come/first serve basis.
WHY:
There is tremendous need right now in our area on many levels and too often that may result in community organizations being under resourced. These distribution days provide an opportunity for local charities, who already are connected with the needs in our community, to get some basic materials for FREE.
WHEN:
Friday June 19 and Saturday, June 20, from 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
WHERE:
Our warehouse located at 2600 Marina Drive in Elkhart, Indiana – just West of the intersection of CR6 and CR 15.
WHO:
greenLockers is a non-profit organization that was founded by Dr. Ted Bryant in the Spring of 2006. greenLockers resources students locally, nationally, and internationally through the distribution of school supplies. New and slightly-used school supplies (and clothes) are collected from area schools during their year-end locker clean-out days. In this way, greenLockers not only facilitates education, but it also enables students to help build community, gain courage, and break out of cycles of poverty that they may have been stuck in for generations.
