Holiday Chill Drive!
Mini fridges and more for a good cause
The INN Between is a hospice and medical respite facility in Salt Lake City serving adults experiencing homelessness.
Amy and Mitch are volunteers there, and they’ve asked for our help gathering key items to support their expansion to 80 beds.
About the items
More than anything else, The INN Between needs 6-can mini fridges so residents can store medication like insulin in their rooms. They also requested lock boxes so residents have a safe place to store important documents and valued items.
Supplying their rooms with these small things offers residents dignity and self-determination when so much is out of their control otherwise. Their rooms are their home.
There are also miscellaneous items on the list, like standard-roll toilet paper, napkins, and activity supplies.
How to buy the items
The Amazon list is one quick option for shipping the items directly to Amy and Mitch’s house. We will gather all the items and deliver them to The INN Between on December 18.
You do not have to choose those exact items!
You can buy similar items from anywhere, as long as the size is the same. Text Amy for shipping address if needed.
