Our Promise
100% of donation goes to keeping the blessing boxes full and maintained.
Why donate?
Our blessing boxes are 100% run on community donation. We work only on volunteer work, generous donations, and recycled furniture. No one involved here makes a profit or gets paid.
What will donations be used for?
Your donations will go to keeping the blessing boxes stocked with food and supplies, as well as to keep the boxes maintained throughout all of Wyoming's elements and ensure a lasting community resource for all.
Can I donate to the box directly?
YES! We encourage community participation. All non-perishable food and household/hygiene essentials are welcome to be donated to the boxes directly and anonymously! We only ask that you take a photo and post on our social media site links (you can post anonymously too), so members on the community will know it is full and ready to be utilized! For donation guidelines please refer below.
Who does the blessing boxes help?
Our blessing boxes are nondiscriminatory services. They are available to all members of the community without judgement or requirement of participation. Donations and utilizations are completely anonymous. They require no information to be given and are run on the honor system. We believe in restoring good faith in human interaction.
Why are we creating blessing boxes?
Our small town of Evanston Wyoming is limited on resources to help. We saw a need and decided to take action! We are not associated with any other service or organization, we are here for the people, and by the people of Uinta County.
