ISI Furniture & More Giveaway - American Volunteers

Can you imagine moving to a new country with only what you can squeeze into two suitcases?  We want to assist our new international students in furnishing their apartments.  Many of these students have nothing when they come - no bed, no desk, no lamps, no sofa or chairs!
 
Many of us have good things we no longer use, but we don't know how to find someone who needs them.  Well we have many students who we can help in a big way!

We are back to having our Giveaway in person this year!  The dates this year for setup are: August 15, 10:30am-3:30pm; August 16 10:30am-3:30pm, August 17th 10:30am-12:00pm.  The Giveaway itself is August 17th, for volunteers, 1:00pm-4:00/4:30pm
 

The Kind of Help needed:

  • Donate new or only lightly used items in very good condition - SEE FURNITURE & ITEMS WE ARE ACCEPTING LIST
  • ​People organizing on setup days and/or help with students during the Giveaway
  • People with trucks, vans or trailers to help transport furniture to the students' apartments the day of the GIveaway (we need 8-10)
  • Moving help - loading/unloading items (muscles)
  • Keep your Amazon boxes, break them down and bring them so we pack items to move items to student apartments
  • Donate $25 Walmart or Target Gift cards for students/scholars for them to buy smaller items they need
  • Donate $500 toward the ISI Giveaway expenses (storage units, truck rental to move items from storage units, street permit, raffle items, etc.)  You can click on the donate tab and give to the KC City Account.
  • Help get the word out at your church and with your friends
This year we have EARLY DROP OFF APPTS BEFORE SETUP DAYS at our storage units.  Contact Carol Douglass (913-485-5520), Betty Hansen (816-820-2300) to set up an appointment.
