Housing First Care Kits: Support Our Neighbors in Need

WHAT TO EXPECT:

Kids + Family Volunteers will work together to assemble care packages for The City of Tucson Housing First Program that contain essential items such as non-perishable food, water, hygiene products, and other necessities to support individuals who are unhoused. Kid Volunteers will also make kind notes to include in care packages.

WHY IS THIS WORK IMPORTANT:

This hands-on volunteer work will benefit The City of Tucson Housing First Program.

The City of Tucson Housing First Program provides a comprehensive array of engagement, shelter + housing services for individuals + families experiencing homelessness in the Tucson area. Specific services include homeless protocol, street outreach, mobile shower, emergency shelter, housing navigation + permanent supportive housing programs.

KIND NOTES:

This in an in-person, indoor event.

• All supplies will be provided.
• A takeaway snack will be provided for the Kid Volunteers at the completion of the project.
• Stay tuned for additional details to help you prepare for the day!

WHY YOU'LL BE ASKED TO PAY A FAMILY REGISTRATION FEE:

Our small family registration fee enables Tucson Family Volunteers, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, to offset volunteer costs for this event. We do the planning, coordinating + buying of supplies (and snacks!) for all volunteer projects so that your family can just sign up, volunteer + have fun!

If you have to cancel your registration later, please know that your fee will go toward our efforts to create more give-back kindness projects for our kids, families + non-profit partners.

KIND NOTE: If you would like to participate in a Tucson Family Volunteers project + need assistance covering the registration fee, please email us: [email protected]. We will handle the registration fee. We want volunteering to be accessible to all. ♥
