We are grateful to all the incredible volunteers who joined us for our recent Summer Volunteer Fun challenge. Your participation in our Challenge, uplifted our community in countless ways.
Now, we need your help again! October brings us Phoenix Day, a carnival-style block party outside of GLIDE. The 300 block of Ellis St. is closed to traffic, and the community comes together to connect, learn about resources and celebrate!
To make this day a success, we’re looking for volunteers to support event activities and help with the dinner shift. Your time and presence will create a warm, welcoming and joyful experience for all.
Gather a group of family, friends or colleagues and help GLIDE collect new items for care packages that will support our ongoing essential service efforts:
• Standard Hygiene Package – Hand sanitizer, toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, shampoo, lotion, deodorant, comb, body wipes, razors, & socks.
• Street Outreach Care Package – Soap, hand sanitizer, bottled water etc.
• Winter Essential – socks, rain poncho, gloves, jacket, umbrella, backpack, and hand warmers.
• Undergarments for all genders of varying sizes
• Furry Companion Care Package – dog treats, leashes, muzzles, dog food, etc.
