Who We Are
The On the Move Program is designed to host Distribution Events and Collection Drives
The biggest obstacle with meeting the needs of our clients has always been transportation. Our box truck provides opportunities to host pre-pack and drive-through pick up events in any area. These host sites can be where clients are concentrated in and around Richmond or in under-served areas around the region. We are open to partnering with local school districts or community initiatives in response to a disaster, etc.
The box truck is also used to pick up truck-load donations from local community partners as well as host large collection drives at churches and neighborhoods. These drives can be initiated by anyone who is willing to coordinate, advertise, and be present during the event.
What We Do
As a part of our On the Move volunteer team you could be:
- A Truck Driver
- A Volunteer giving out items at a Distribution Event
- A Volunteer receiving and loading items at a Collection Drive
- A Shopper purchasing items for a Distribution Event.
This is a NEW and GROWING part of Mercy Mall. We joke all the time about our FLEET of trucks one day! You can be a part of the TEAM that grows the mission of being On the Move with Mercy Mall.
