Volunteers collect, organize, and distribute essential household items into "kits" for our vulnerable neighbors. These "kits" work to stabilize and strengthen the lives of the people we serve and our community as a whole. As we prepare for your group’s event, we’ll have a short conversation about your group's desired experience so we can help to tailor the volunteer time to your capacity. We'll match the “kits” of items to the areas of greatest need at the moment and create the most impactful event for the volunteers and the people we serve. Can be held onsite or virtually.
Volunteers should bring bulk kit making items that depend on Impact NW's current need. Usually it consists of -Reusable bags/packs -Nonperishable foods -Hygiene Items -Water Bottles -Blankets and warm clothes
Impact NW’s mission is to prevent homelessness by partnering with people as they navigate their journey to stability and opportunity. Impact NW is 100% committed to solutions that restore the livability and sustainability that the Portland region is so well known for. Our driving solution is to prevent homelessness. It’s a simple yet powerful focus. By helping people get the supports they need at critical moments, we help them avoid a crisis. Everyone benefits, whether they realize it or not. One health crisis, emergency room visit, or a lost job can land a family in a shelter or in a tent. The trauma is devastating. Everyone in our community suffers. Impact NW supports people before it’s too late in two main ways: We stabilize by offering services such as rent, utility and other supports. And we strengthen by offering job training, parenting support, and opportunities for children.
