About This Project
Summary
The 30IN30 campaign is our collaboration with a local nonprofit organization already feeding the hungry and enhance their event. It allows us to build our relationship with them and other local entities around our mission. The relationships being built allows us to make an impact locally and positions us to connect them with other entities across the region. The more connections we make, the stronger the regional network we’re building.
Goals & Objectives
The goal of the 30IN30 event in St. Thomas was to strengthen our ties with and increase local support. We wanted to provide a meal, a new T-shirt and a bag of toiletries for up to 100 homeless people in the Market Square area.
Results & Impact
We were able to engage new local members to support our event. Our existing local community support increased. We served 100 homeless people in one hour. We have raised awareness, support and this feeds into our goal of establishing a local food bank. The food bank will offer help beyond food.
