Springs Rescue Mission (SRM) will host its annual “Summer Extravaganza” for the less fortunate on Saturday, June 4, 2011. The event is from 9 am until 1 pm and will be held on the SRM campus located at 5 West Las Vegas Street. Your donations in Colorado Springs are making a real difference.
With unemployment at its highest in decades, rising gas and food costs still causing an imbalance in many lives, already struggling poor and needy families in Colorado Springs need help. Springs Rescue Mission is planning to make a difference by providing free clothing and furniture to families and individuals who are in need of these items.
New, unused or gently used items can be donated to Springs Rescue Mission, 1 West Las Vegas Street, Monday–Friday, 9:30 am–4:00 pm and Saturday, 9:00 am–11:30 am. Donations will not be accepted on Saturday, June 4 since the parking area will be blocked for the Summer Extravaganza.
“Spring Rescue Mission offers families in need time together to enjoy free food, music and time away from their day-to-day pressures. In addition, there will be free clothing for men, women and children. A limited amount of furniture will also be available for those with a vehicle to transport the furniture. This is going to be a great day of fun!” says Karen Hughes, Outreach Coordinator.
