DIY VOLUNTEER PROJECT - Nourishment Kits

DATES DE DÉPÔT :

Tuesday, April 29, 2025   11am – 2pm

Thursday, May 8, 2025   11am – 2pm  

Friday, May 16, 2025   11am – 2pm

IMPACT:  RBHA serves over 13,000 individuals – children and adults – every year.  The individuals we serve often do not have resources to purchase needed items. The Nourishment Kits will be distributed across the agency to individuals receiving services – children who may need a snack, adults who may need food to take with medication, individuals experiencing homelessness, or individuals who may have no food that day.

Richmond Behavioral Health fearlessly champions the health, wellness, and recovery of individuals and families in our community.  Our vision is to create an inclusive, healthy community where individuals have the courage to believe in a better tomorrow and are inspired to reach their highest potential.

Fournitures :

  • 10 sacs ziplock d'un gallon
  • 10 Notecards – with personal note
  • Compote de pommes - boîte ou sachet à portion individuelle
  • Pretzels or Goldfish – single serving bag
  • Craquelins au fromage - paquet individuel
  • Soft granola bar or Nutri-grain bars
  • Cereal boxes – individual serving size

Première étape :

  • Purchase and/or collect your supplies. We ask DIY volunteers to donate a minimum of 10 Nourishment Kits. Contributions over the minimum amount are welcome, but we will not be able to document more than 3 service hours for any DIY project.

Deuxième étape :

  • Placez un exemplaire de chaque article dans chacun des 10 sacs à fermeture éclair.
  • Écrivez un message d'encouragement sur chaque carte de notes à inclure dans les sacs.

 Troisième étape :

  • Déposez votre projet à la RBHA à l'une des dates/heures suivantes :

Tuesday, April 29, 2025   11am – 2pm

Thursday, May 8, 2025   11am – 2pm  

Friday, May 16, 2025   11am – 2pm

  • We are located at 107 S. 5th Street, Richmond, VA  23219.  We will be set up outside to receive donations.  In case of inclement weather, we will be set up just inside the garage which is located beside the main entrance. 

Quatrième étape :

  • Sharing your time and resources is a great gift to others.  We hope that through your giving, you receive something beneficial in return – the feeling of doing good for someone in need and knowing you have had a direct, positive impact in someone’s life. Talking through the purpose of the project as you complete it is a great way for all involved to gain a connection to those being served through your generosity.  Here are some questions to help guide conversation:
    • Comment ce projet aidera-t-il une personne dans le besoin ?
    • Que savons-nous de l'importance de construire une communauté faite pour s'entraider ?
    • Nos sentiments à l'égard des bénéficiaires de ce projet ont-ils changé au fur et à mesure que nous l'avons réalisé ?
    • Qu'est-ce qui a bien fonctionné dans ce projet ?
    • What else can we do now?  Are there other ways we can help?
