Two trips, a 26-foot U-Haul, and about 10 hours of teamwork, all to bring donations to families in our community!

On Sunday, September 27, Children’s Futures staff and our Outreach Street Team joined our community partner, Just Between Friends, for our semi-annual donation pickup. Together, the teams loaded and unloaded books, clothing, toys, shoes, cribs, Pack ’n Plays, highchairs, and household items.

These donations will be available to local families through Children’s Futures Case Managers.

Thank you to Just Between Friends for your continued generosity, and to everyone who helped make this pickup possible. Your time and hard work make a difference for the families we serve!
