Resurrection Brookside, 5144 Oak St., KC, MO 64112
Setup Days: August 22 & 23, 10am-3:30pm, August 24, 10am-1pm
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! The ISI Home Goods Giveaway is a very practical way to help them and show love.
Signup to help and recruit others too! This important outreach needs lots of help to show the love of Jesus to these newly arrived internationals from around the world. The Giveaway is for KUMC, UMKC and UCM new arrivals. We have between 100-260 students/scholars who participate.
Be a part of helping them experience His love in a very tangible way!!
For a successful Giveaway, we need help during the setup days to unload and organize items. On the day of the Giveaway, we need volunteers to help it run smoothly, plus drivers of vans, trucks and trailers to deliver items to the students' apartments.
