The Gathering Inn helps over 300 folks every day throughout Placer County and the Sacramento region in all steps of the journey to sustainable housing, providing and facilitating emergency housing, permanent supportive housing and medical respite care. Donations will give much-appreciated support to the individuals and families who are working their way to their own kitchen table and place to call home.
Customers are encouraged to pick up extra shelf-stable items when they shop and place their donations in the large barrel at the front of the store.
Says Katee Gustavson, BriarPatch’s Community Engagement Coordinator: “It’s great we’re able to provide an easy way for folks to donate much needed shelf-stable food to guests of The Gathering Inn. These donations will make an instant and important impact.”
Says Darlene Cullivan, Chief Philanthropy Officer, The Gathering Inn: “The Gathering Inn is very grateful for the generosity and love that our community continuously extends to our guests. Through the partnership with BriarPatch Food Co-Op, this pantry drive stands as a testament to the compassion and support our guests receive on their journey to sustainable housing. We are thankful for this collaboration, which reflects the community’s unwavering commitment to making a meaningful impact.”
