Do you have something for our empty semi trailer?
This is our first project. The story of our beginning. The story of 4 people who drove to the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota and saw something we could never forget. We saw little ones with no shoes and clothes that did not fit. We met beautiful people who live with little or no furniture, many times no beds and not enough blankets. People with very bare cupboards and little ones pouring water on their cereal instead of milk. We could never drive home and leave it all behind us. It would stay strong in our memories every day. What would/could we do? We would load pickups and horse trailers with every kind of household thing imaginable and off we went to deliver our gifts. Hundreds and hundreds showed up to receive these gifts. We needed more pickups! Instead we bought ourselves a 48ft. semi trailer by selling burgers and hot dogs in front of Sam's Club stores and they matched our earnings.
That first year we went to the reservation 11 times. Now we are averaging 4 times per year. We no longer take clothing because that is the least needed of all things. We are always desiring your good condition donation of furniture, mattresses, washers, dryers, refrigerators, and all things kitchen. We just returned from delivering a load of building materials such as used doors, windows, kitchen cabinets. Many scrambled for these items. It was a lot of fun.
Of course you do have to live in the Front Range of Colorado. But others could send funds for the fuel. This project also needs a "Project Manager" who will coordinate pickups and drop locations.
