Create Your Own Project

Maybe you’ve looked at the opportunities we’ve provided but there isn’t one that fits your schedule. Or….. …maybe you just have an amazing idea of a way to bless someone!

Create your own project and let us know! Some ideas include: Doing yardwork for someone in need Preparing a meal for a neighbor “just because” you want to Spread Love, and Give Hope!

Crocheting a blanket, cap, socks, etc for a baby and delivering it to an expecting mother Offer to watch someone’s child(ren) so they can go on a date night Have you (and your family) go through old clothes and toys, and either take them to a donation center or give them away!

Plan to start leaving a treat for your delivery person
Volunteer at a non-profit organization that is meaningful to you Look for a blood drive happening soon and donate!
Purchase a few gift cards at a gas station, Starbucks, grocery store, and just give them out to people
