Our mission
Together, We Can Build Brighter Futures for Everyone
OUR MISSION We Treat Every Person in Need Like a Loved One
To us, the need in our communities is personal. When people right among us struggle, we cannot look away. We bring communities together for the good of the most vulnerable by sourcing and distributing essential items that change lives.
Backed by socially-conscious companies, foundations, organizations, and individuals, we channel donations to our nonprofit partners on the front lines, equipping them with the resources they need to maximize the impact on the people they serve. Picture a child who finally receives school supplies, a veteran who discovers someone cares, a young mom who no longer has to worry about being able to feed her family. Join our mission to provide goods that lend hope and dignity to those who need it most.

Connect
We take the challenge out of finding the right local charities for philanthropic companies and individuals by connecting their donations to the front lines of need.

We help our nonprofit partners fulfill their important missions by providing the goods they need to empower the people they serve.
WHO WE SERVE The Needs in Your Community Are Greater than You Realize
When you see someone struggling, you know that is someone's friend or family member. They all deserve a brighter future. Their struggles are real, every day.

Refugee Needs
Many of the thousands of displaced people in New England arrived with nothing. And the barriers to feeling at home add up as those have sought refuge in the United States often face lack of social support, language struggles, and stagnant incomes.
