SEPTEMBER → OCTOBER

September gave us a strong start to October.

We received 70 monetary donations and 845 pantry + essentials items from people who wanted to help stock 611.

Now, 80 shopping families will walk through our doors in October, each able to choose 4 essentials + food.

We also have over 70 volunteer spots available, and qualifying volunteers can shop and choose 4 essentials.

That means 600+ high-need essentials can leave 611 this month.

In a typical month, about 50 households ask for laundry detergent, toilet paper or paper towels.

So this is what a strong start looks like.

Now we want to do it again in November. And December. And every month after that.

Please keep bringing us the essentials and pantry items on our needs list. We want to keep 611 stocked and have enough on hand that we’re not scrambling every month when something runs low.

And if you want to help in other ways:

Contribute $6.11 every month to join the $6.11 for 611 crew.

Sign up for Leadership. Get involved as a teen. Watch for 611 Social. Organize an essentials or pantry drive.

September stocked us up.

Let’s keep it going!
