We need YOUR help Finding a NEW HOME!
Facility Needs:
We are looking for a quick turnaround and a normal or creative solution for a new home. We are in need for someone with a big heart, looking for a mission, a charity to back, a space to fill or a tax write off.
* Our Needs:
- We need 2,000 - 4,000 sq. ft. of packing facility space
- A bathroom
- A water source for a 3 section sink for washing tubs & utensils AND for 2 sinks for volunteers to wash their hands.
- A dock or a large door (garage or double door) that would fit pallets through easily and a large truck can unload near.
- We utilized a warehouse space/garage at one location and a retail space at a mall at our current location. We are adaptable.
- Heat, Air Conditioning and Water is needed.
- We currently pay $1,000/mo. plus utilities.
- Looking for a quick transition to a new facility by April 22 if possible.
- 15 parking spots
