Serving Homeless Families - Blessings For Brevard
Tax deductible
REMARKABLE: Since 2020, each year Blessings for Brevard ("BFB") has helped over 700 NEEDY families by locating donors and delivering donated beds, furniture, washers, dryers, refrigerators, kitchen sets, linens, etc. FREE! BFB works closely with County Agencies that pre-screen families -- who are transitioning from Homelessness, Shelters, or "Couch-to-Couch" survival -- and help them move into a modest furnished apartment...and get a fresh start in life. BFB has also delivered over 600 Christmas trees (covered by TV news).
Kathy Jones works tirelessly, often 6 days/week until 7 or 8pm, without compensation!
BFB NEEDS to replace a 2005 F-150 truck w/270,000 miles so homeless families moving into an apartment (fresh start) will have furnishings and beds to sleep on. An F-150 with ~100,000 miles costs ~$13,000-$15,000, plus tax & dealer fees).
BFB also needs a 6' x 12' trailer ($1,700 - $2,000) to minimize the number of trips, mileage, and wear and tear on the truck. Additional monthly expenses include truck insurance ($100) and a 10'x10' storage unit ($160), plus: day laborers, gas, tires, and maintenance.
I have donated a bed, furniture, linens and $100/mo. for the past 2 years. I matched the first $5,000 in contributions. Please give (tax deductible) $25, $50 or $100 to help the needy...who are taking steps to better themselves!
