As Thanksgiving approaches, Bridges to Hope (bridgestohopene.org) invites local businesses, churches, and community groups to embrace the spirit of gratefulness by hosting donation drives to support individuals transitioning from incarceration to independent living.
Bridges to Hope relies on the generosity of our community to provide the tangible basic need items that make second chances possible. Each donation,
large or small, helps men and women exiting incarceration rebuild their lives with dignity, stability, and hope.
In the true spirit of gratitude in action, we encourage your business or group to organize a collection drive this season. Our most needed
items include:
- Underwear (new, all sizes, men’s and women’s)
- Crew or sport socks (all sizes, men’s and women’s)
- White t-shirts (new, all sizes)
- Hygiene products (body wash, 3-in-1 soap, shampoo,
deodorant, toothpaste) - Men’s jeans and shoes (all sizes)
- Full and Queen Mattresses (clean and in good condition
with no rips, stains, or repairs needed) - Furniture (including dressers, dining tables, end tables,
coffee tables, and nightstands)
Every contribution provides comfort and confidence to those working hard to rebuild their lives.
To learn how to drop-off donations or schedule a furniture pick-up, contact Bridges to Hope at (402) 420-5696, or visit bridgestohopene.org.
This Thanksgiving, let’s turn gratitude into action and share the gift of second chances.
