Looking for a way to volunteer but you just don’t have time, physical capability, or a lot of resources. Do you have a group of friends, family or church members that are looking for ways to support an organization? Let me introduce you to SPARC Hope, we are a non-profit that supports single working parents who are pursuing higher education. We provide resources and services directly to the parent and their families as they work toward the goal of providing a better and brighter future for their families.
One resource we provide is an on-site pantry where parents can come shop for all their grocery and household needs. This offers them a savings of $200-600 a month and an overall program benefit of $6600 a year. To start a pantry-drive, you can check out our website for our SPARC Hope Pantry Needs, check out our Facebook page, or call our office at 245-9899 to find out what our pantry needs are.
You can also host a themed pantry-drive for holidays or important milestones. We are looking for volunteers to assist/coordinate our special programs throughout the year that assist our clients. By coordinating, you can host a drive, put together baskets, provide resources, put together a team, adopt a family. Some basket ideas and holiday drives include:
- Back to School Supplies
- Christmas Stocking Stuffers
- Easter Baskets
- Father’s Day Gifts
- Halloween Costumes
- Mother’s Day Gifts
- Spring Cleaning Baskets
- Thanksgiving Baskets
- Valentine’s Day Gifts
