In an effort to support the work of our House to Home Team, we are hosting a household supply drive. If you have a passion for helping provide support and hope to families who have faced unimaginable challenges, select items you’d like to donate from our “Wish Wall” located on the far east side of the Gathering Space or visit our Amazon Wish List.
We are also in need of larger donations such as; end tables, dressers, kitchen tables, etc. If you have larger items to donate, please contact Brandi prior to dropping them off. Due to limited storage space and specific criteria, furniture must be approved before being brought to the church.
Approved donations can be dropped off in the donation bins in the Gathering Space on Sunday mornings OR at our drive-thru drop-off on March 11 in the lower south parking lot between 10-12.
If you have questions, please contact Brandi Molina, director of Missions for more information.
Each year, Platte Woods Church partners with the Pine Ridge BEAR Program to collect donations to support their “Yes to the Dress, Woot Woot to the Suit”. If you have prom dresses, suits, or dress clothing in great shape that you would like to donate to teens in Pine Ridge, you can drop it off in the donation rack in the far east wall of the Gathering Space anytime between now and Sunday, March 26th.
