Safe Space Blanket/Sleepingbag Drive

Safe Space and Chico Friends on the Street are conducting a sleeping bag/blanket drive.

Safe Space has been over capacity all winter, and with colder weather and more rain in the forecast, they will be forced to turn away more people in the next several weeks. Used sleeping bags and blankets can save lives.

Drop all items  in the barrel at Sportsman’s Warehouse, 756 East Avenue, Suite 170 between 10-8 through February 3rd.

Volunteers Needed! Please,  help staff the shelter. Sign up for shifts at: https://signup.com/client/invitation2/secure/2110378/false#/invitation
