Fill the Need: June

In every monthly issue of A Wider Circle's First Friday newsletter, Fill the Need will highlight three specific ways you can help make an immediate impact. Whether you choose to Drop It Off, Ship It, or Fund It, your support makes it easy to fill our most urgent needs.

Here's how you can Fill the Need this June:

  1. Drop It Off: This month, we're looking for fans to help fight the summer heat! You can help by dropping off gently-used fans at our Silver Spring Center. You can find donation drop-off hours for our Silver Spring Center here.

  2. Ship It: Want to help but don’t have the item on hand? Check out our Fill the Need Wishlist to purchase a high-need item and have it shipped directly to us. This month, our Ward 8 Hub is looking for healthy non-perishable food and snacks for our food pantry, as well as coffee, creamer, and sweetener for meetings and workshops (like our weekly Job Café).

  3. Fund It: Some opportunities to support our work arise outside of our regular budget. Each month, we’ll share one specific item or service that your gift can help fund — something timely and meaningful that will make a real difference. This month, your donations will allow us to purchase full- and queen-sized bed frames. While we regularly receive donated mattresses in these sizes, they don't always come in with a frame. These purchases will help ensure adults who receive beds from us have a full set, keeping their new mattress off the floor. You can support this effort by filling out the donation form above.

With your support, we can provide our neighbors with exactly what they need, when they need it most.
