SUMMARY:Making Magic Together: Dresser Build Event with DVIP/RVAP and Houses into Homes
DESCRIPTION:Two local organizations are coming together to create something magical!\n\n\nHelp DVIP/RVAP furnish and decorate our six new stable housing units in Johnson County. We’re partnering with the amazing Houses into Homes to make things as seamless as possible for donors\, neighbors\, clients\, and each other!\n\n\nConstruction of the units is nearly complete\, and as we prepare to welcome families into their new houses it’s now time to make them homes. We’ll furnish each one intentionally\, and to reduce both cost and waste\, most of the furniture in the homes will be gently-used and refurbished.\n\n\nAmong the long list of needs\, each 3 Bedroom Townhome requires 3 dressers and 3 nightstands. If possible\, we would love to provide these bedroom items new and lovingly built by neighbors this late summer evening.\n\n\nOur friends at Ball\, Kirk & Holm have pulled a magical opportunity out of their hats: the cost of all of the dressers and nightstands! When they learned of this new townhome furnishing project and the build event in support of The Row\, BK&H stepped up with a challenge: get 60 sign-ups to help build all 18 dressers and 18 nightstands at once on August 11\, and they will sponsor the ENTIRE cost of furniture.\n\n\nIf we succeed\, any additional financial support and sponsorship for the event will go entirely to helping the victim-survivors\, thanks to this amazing generosity. So\, now it’s up to you. Don’t let this chance to fund $3\,600 of furniture vanish back into thin air!\n\n\nWhen you sign up\, say a little thanks to BKH. This is a free event; however\, registration is required.\n\n\nIf you are a business or organization interested in sponsoring the event\, or providing food/drink for a fun evening\, please write to directors@housesintohomes.org. All funds raised will be used exclusively to support the townhome project.\n\n\nSchedule:\n5:45-6:00pm: Registration and Gathering\n6:10pm: Welcome & Instructions\n6:15-7:45: Build ready-to-assemble dressers and nightstands in teams of 2-4\nOR: “Shop” in Houses into Homes warehouse from prepared lists (kitchen items\, linens\, decor\, toys\, games\, cleaning supplies\, etc) and pack in moving boxes\nOR: Test puzzles and games\, write housewarming cards\, and more\n7:45-8:00: Collect & Clean up\n\n\nLearn more and register/donate here. \n\n\nWant to volunteer at this event? If you’re a first-time Houses into Homes volunteer\, register here. Next\, to volunteer on August 11\, sign-up here.
