Opportunity Details

Purse Stuffins - Prep Shift (age 12+) *PHC 2017*

100 Strong in Beaverton is a giving-minded professional women’s group to advance and purposefully connect one another and impact our community.

In 2015, the 100 Strong in Beaverton took on a challenge: get 100 purses donated and fill them with necessities for our homeless lady friends that would be at Project Homeless Connect in January 2016. 400 purses later… It was a huge success and every lady left with a new-to-her handbag with items to make their life just a bit more comfortable.

This fall, the 100 Strong in Beaverton ran an amazing purse drive with a goal of collecting 500 gently used purses and hygiene items to aid our female guests at the project. We need help stuffing the purses with hygiene items and getting them ready to be chosen by our guests at PHC! This will be a fun and time-efficient way to contribute to Project Homeless Connect on the setup night before the event on Friday. You're welcome to sign up for just one hour, or join us for both!
 
When:

5:00pm - 8:00pm

Project Requirements:

  • Volunteers must be 12 years of age or older to attend this project; any volunteer under age 16 must attend with a parent or adult chaperone.

  • If you plan to bring other guests to the event, you MUST reserve slots for them. The best way to do this is to create a Volunteer Team. You can then sign up your team for this project. PLEASE NOTE: If you do reserve slots for multiple team members, it is imperative that each person signed up shows up. Spaces are limited and groups who don't show up can drastically reduce the amount of work each shift can accomplish.

  • All volunteers under 18 are required to bring a waiver signed by their parent or legal guardian. Please download, complete, and bring this waiver with you on the day of the project: Youth Volunteer Release Form.
