First Pack Party is a Success

October 12, 2015 By Alana Roberts 2 Comments

 

An overwhelming thank you goes out to the Val Vista Lakes Women’s Club for their unbelievable generosity this past week in launching our first “Pack Party” at their monthly membership meeting.  

Donations were coming in by the cases and we were able to generously fill 54 backpacks!!  The ladies were busy sorting and filling the donated packs with a variety of supplies for those in our community who need basic and essential supplies while living on the streets or in shelters.  

We included water, water bottles, personal hygiene products, snacks, notebooks and pens, hats, socks and resource material among many other items.

Many women were inspired to take several packs home with them to put in their cars to hand out to those on the street.  We have received numerous comments and stories of the positive effects that this project has had on those who have offered the packs to recipients and the recipients as well.

One recipient said “Wow this is everything that I have needed!”  

Blessings to those who made the launch of this project a success!

If you have donations in the future, please contact me or go to our donations page to make your contribution or to schedule a drop off.  The packs are available for you to disseminate if you so choose and you may pick them up anytime.

Pack Party with Val Vista Lakes Women’s Club

September 29, 2015 By Alana Roberts Leave a Comment

I am pleased and honored to have been invited to present Packs For Prosperity to the Val Vista Lakes Women’s Club (VVLWC) in Gilbert, Arizona at their next monthly membership meeting on October 7, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. at the Val Vista Lakes Clubhouse.

Packs for Prosperity is finally ready to share our project with the community and we will be starting at home in Gilbert with the generous women of Val Vista Lakes.

The Val Vista Lakes Women’s Club is a social membership group of neighborhood women who meet monthly for socializing, networking, sharing information, and assisting the community with charitable projects.  Each month the VVLWC meets and invites a speaker to share a topic of interest.  This year the Women’s Club is expected to hear from four local charities on their mission and goals for helping within our community.

Packs for Prosperity (P4P) has been invited to share the new “project” with the local club next Wednesday evening.  P4P will give a short presentation explaining how the project came to be and then the entire group of women will assemble 50 backpacks for the homeless with basic, essential supplies that they have donated for the project and have brought with them.

Our goal is to have 50 completed backpacks to distribute to those in need within the next several months.

We are requesting the following supplies:  backpacks, personal hygiene products, tarps, baggies, note paper and pens, socks, sunscreen, inspirational and resource information, to name a few.  For a complete list of supplies that we are collecting, please click on our supplies needed page.

Thank you to the Val Vista Lakes Women's Club for us to get this project started!! Share on X
