Arlington Life Shelter supports homeless families and individuals with comprehensive services encompassing employment and educational aid, health care, nutrition, and transitional housing. As part of its donated-food programs, Arlington Life Shelter supplies fresh milk to its residents to prevent malnourishment and poor health. However, the shelter cannot always use donated bulk milk before it spoils in the refrigerator.
Milk represents an expensive necessity for a healthy diet, and wasting donated milk saps funding from other services. In order to avoid holding a load of donated milk that spoils, Arlington Life Shelter hopes to establish a milk budget to buy milk on an as-needed basis. With this fund, it can gradually acquire milk during the course of 10 weeks without ever storing up more than it can use, ensuring this nutritional staple will be available to supplement the diet of homeless children and adults.
Join G-Team and donate $10 to help ensure homeless families and individuals have milk as part of a healthy diet. If G-Team members raise $300, then Arlington Life Shelter can add to the milk fund to purchase milk gradually for 10 weeks. Each additional $10 raised will fund two gallons of milk. G-Team members can also sign up for a tour of the shelter in exchange for their voucher.
Unlike traditional Groupon deals, G-Team campaigns typically don't offer you a "discount" or "savings." So "buyer" beware—when you click "Buy" to donate your time or money to a worthwhile G-Team cause, the only discount you may receive is 100% off free, priceless karma. Read more about G-Team.
