Bringing dignity to Families In 2009 the FreeStore served 258 families, which included 388 children!
Founded in 2001, the FreeStore provides household items and furniture free of charge to women when they leave the Children & Families of Iowa's Domestic Violence Services. We also provide these same items to needy families from other social agencies for a nominal fee.
The FreeStore is entirely run by volunteers, with NO paid staff. Volunteers are always needed to pick-up furniture, organize items in the warehouse, greet clients, help clients move furniture to their new apartments, and raise funds.
Up coming events:
The FreeStore truck will be available for donations at the Blank Park Zoo for the 5th Judicial District 5K run/walk and crime victims’ memorial on April 17.
Fill the Mayflower on May 14: 9AM-7PM, May 15: 8AM-5PM; May 16: 1PM-4PM. ( 2009 Fill the Mayflower pictures)
