NON-MONETARY DONATIONS ACCEPTED
How it works: Reuse – Recycle – Reduce
FISH Mending Nets, Inc. accepts donations of basic necessities, clothing, baby supplies, food and household goods, and offers assistance to those in need. Through the Facebook group, people reach out to each other to ask for, and to give, help.
While for many of us, bulk pick up day is a time to toss away unwanted items, FISH Mending Nets volunteers use these long days to collect items for distribution to those in need.
Since a large proportion of families who receive assistance do not have a reliable form of transportation, #ParklandStrong women are leaving their gated communities to drive pickup truck loads of items to surrounding cities (even as far as Homestead and West Palm Beach).
While there are many food pantries, very few consider the transportation needs of those that they serve.
Generous donors also help supply necessary funds to feed people who have fallen on hard times.
​
If you would like to donate a physical item, please email info@fishmendingnets.com to arrange the donation of household goods, furniture, baby items, clothing, etc.
RAPID RESPONSE
Crises strike without warning, and FISH Mending Nets are always ready to step-in, and use all our collective desires to help one another on a moment’s notice. As a small non-bureaucratic not-for-profit, when victims of domestic violence reach out, FISH Mending Nets volunteers can quickly and efficiently (and confidentially) help.
