F3 "Belts and Backpacks" Drive

Help 150 of Our Homeless Neighbors in Need: Donate Belts and Backpacks!

Urban Ministries of Durham has reached out to F3, asking us to mobilize a 3rd F initiative on behalf of the homeless in our community. Specifically, they need 150 Belts and Backpacks by November 30 to give away as Christmas gifts. There are 3 easy ways to pitch in:

1) Contribute Cash: Give here. $10 buys a belt, $15 buys a backpack. We'll use every dime  to purchase belts and backpacks on your behalf in partnership with Urban Ministries.

2) Buy on Amazon:  We've got a curated Wish List ( http://a.co/aX5fLIb ) where you can pick an item (or two!) and send directly to Urban Ministries' volunteer coordinator. Please use the following shipping address:
Gin Jackson (Attn: F3 Belts and Backpacks)
233 Landsbury Drive
Durham, NC 27707 

3) Donate Your Used Belts and Backpacks: You've shed some pounds or graduated to a rucksack. If you got 'em, we'll take 'em. Tell us what you 're donating here: http://bit.ly/umdbeltsbackpacks 

It was amazing how quickly y'all rose to the occasion when the hurricanes struck. Let's rise up again and support some folks who struggle on our streets every day. Thank you!
