WISE Home + The Road Home

Last week, WISE Home Solutions had the opportunity to collect and deliver donations to our local shelter, The Road Home. Since recently partnering with The Road Home, WISE is dedicated to helping and assisting this incredible organization. In addition to donating a portion of our sales, our team found another way we could help out: collecting in-kind donations.

The Process

After visiting The Road Home, we decided WISE needed to assist the shelter as a team. As we sifted through our options of ways we could help, we landed on a donation drive. Our plan was to get everyone in the office to donate, as well as our community. Most people have old clothes or shoes they need to donate, but never find the time to actually drop them off anywhere. So, we decided to help our local neighborhood with some spring cleaning while also assisting our new partner.

As a team, we dropped off flyers and garbage bags door-to-door informing the neighborhood of our plan. We asked the participants to simply fill up the bags with anything they’d like to donate, and we’d be by the next day to pick it up and donate it for them. So, the next day we gathered our team together, and set out to collect donations.

The Results

Overall, we were able to donate 13 full bags to The Road Home. Together with our community, our team was able to fill up a car full of donations and take them straight to the shelter. It was a great team building experience, as well as a wonderful way to give back to our community. WISE Home Solutions appreciates all the help we received, and we are excited to do this all over again. We want to thank those who donated and helped us give back!
