Gracing Spaces

Hello, and happy holidays!

During this holiday season, just like an abundant cornucopia, certain areas at Gracing Spaces are full to bursting. Therefore, we respectfully ask that you **refrain** from donating any CLOTHES OR KITCHEN GOODS for the rest of the year. Thanks in advance for helping us in this way!

Otherwise, our high needs items are as follows:

twin beds and twin comforters
full beds and full comforters
dressers
floor lamps

As always, our drop off location and time are at 11451 Braddock Rd, Fairfax, VA 22030, from 9 AM to 10:30 AM on Wednesdays.

If you have larger items, like beds or dressers (that are in high demand for us) please reach out here to get in touch with our wonderful haulers: https://gracingspaces.com/donate-goods/

Announcements to come about holiday closures. Thank you for all of your consideration, time, and effort.

Many of our partner organizations are working extra hard to get people placed before the holidays and before the cold weather sets in. When they are busy, we are busy!

To meet the end-of-the-year demand, we are purchasing beds that we aren’t able to source from donors. Gracing Spaces is fully committed to meeting the needs in our community and never saying to a social worker or client that we can’t help them with this fundamental need.

Would you consider helping us with this mission?

A new twin bed and platform cost $120, and a new full bed and platform cost $155. A set of bed linens costs about $40.

With a financial gift of $160-$195, we can work together to get the most vulnerable people in our community off of floors and out of sleeping bags and into beds they can call their own.

For the next two weeks (December 3-17), a generous supporter of Gracing Spaces will match all donations given to the organization to provide for our neighbors in need. Please visit https://gracingspaces.com/donate/ to donate!

Thank you for considering this special end-of-year contribution. For folks who have slept in tents, cars, or on the ground, your gift is life-changing.

In keeping with last week's post, I'd like to share that I am grateful for my body that carries me through life. Sometimes, I take it for granted. What are you grateful for?
