What's Bin Happening
Check out what our Bin Babes and partners have been doing.
BNI Top Shelf Professionals
Bin Blessed was chosen as the BNI Top Shelf Professionals charity of the quarter. They have been collecting money following their meetings in July, August and on into September. They are presenting us with a check at the September meeting addressing it to There With Care for Bin Blessed. Sheri will be going to the August meeting to show our video to increase donations before the last meeting in September.
Bin Kids event
Success from Journey Church’s Serve Day has inspired a new Bin Blessed event just for kids.
Watching the kids have so much fun filling our Bins, Cy came up with the idea for our first Bin Kids event. In December, we will get together with Bin Blessed member's children and grandchildren to create a mini-bag event! Date: TBA.
Highlights from
100 Women that Care meeting
Cy gave a heartwarming presentation for Bin Blessed and There With Care during the quarterly meeting for 100 Women that Care in Douglas County. The competition was undeniable against the non profits Help and Homeless and Meals on Wheels. We did not win the bid but from Cy’s presentation we earned several incredible partnerships instead. Still a BIG win for Bin Blessed and There With Care. We are thrilled to know more such like-minded women that are willing to roll up their sleeves and help these families in crisis.
Two of the 100 Women members, Stacy Brammer, Joelle Hogue and all of the ladies at their table offered to collect our Top 5 items from their neighborhood each month. Keen Ranch in South Castle Rock has 268 homes. The ladies have agreed to personally pick up donations each month and bring them to us, SUPER generous!! Bin Babe, Sallie Daihl also lives in Keen Ranch and she will be their contact person and deliver their items to There With Care. Thanks Sallie for your support!
We met another 100 Women that Care member, Kathy Helfrich with Savvy Giving Back. Here’s what she had to say after the presentation:
"Your message and moto are so aligned with what Savvy Giving by Design Denver does. As our Chapters are run by Interior Designers, our contribution is to transform the recipient's room to provide a healing space but we also do siblings rooms too! I truly believe that with what There with Care and Bin Blessed provide these families, if you guys see the need for a family in need of a room transformation, we could really turn these family's lives around."
We have put Kathy in touch with There With Care and hope they can work together to impact a critically ill child and their sibling.
Scroll through the below gallery to see the after photos of two room transformations for recipient 9-year-old Lizzie with extensive medical issues. She has a service dog at all times and a night nurse several nights a week. Her Brother’s room was also transformed into an amazing, fun space for him too!
