🍯🐻🐷 If Pooh and Piglet can find something worth hugging, you can probably find something worth buying.

And today is a GREAT day to look.😉

It’s First Friday at Gift & Thrift!

Come wander the aisles. Dig through the treasures. Find something you absolutely did not know you needed five minutes ago. (We’ve all been there.)

And the best part? Your shopping does a LOT of good.

This month’s First Friday benefits United Way of Central Shenandoah Valley, so that lamp, dish, book, piece of furniture or random-but-awesome treasure you take home can help make a difference right here in our community. :heart:

We’ll be there, too, sharing resources, talking about the work happening across the Valley and, honestly, probably doing a little shopping ourselves.

So come see us!

Shop a little. Give a little. Find something good. Do some good.

Pooh and Piglet approve.

See you at Gift & Thrift TODAY! 👋

🦸Turns out, our community has a LOT of superheroes. 🦸‍♀️

And Tools For School was a pretty great reminder of that.

Were compiling the Tools For School impact numbers and check out what our community did together! 💖

Thanks to the back-to-school superheroes across Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, 462 families were served through this year’s Tools For School. 🎒

But here’s the number that really makes us stop and smile:

Since Tools For School began in 2023, 2,228 households have been served.
That’s 2,228 households who felt the power of a community!

And Tools For School is just one example of what happens when we connect people, resources and ideas around the challenges facing our neighbors.

At United Way of Central Shenandoah Valley, we believe meaningful change doesn’t happen because of one person or one organization. It happens when we all have a role to play.

A volunteer.

A donor.

A business partner.

A neighbor.

Those individual actions add up to something much bigger.

That’s the work we’re committed to every day: connecting and mobilizing our community to improve lives. And we’re grateful to have so many superheroes alongside us.

💖Thank you for being part of it.

If you’d like to help us keep building on this momentum, make your gift today because, together, there's so much more we can do!

🚌 School buses are back, folks!

This awesome community showed up for students with backpacks and school supplies at Tools For School two weeks ago. Now, we can show up for them in another really important way: keeping students safe as they travel to and from school.

So, be mindful of the rules of the road when it comes to school bus stops.

Tools For School let the world know we're a community that looks out for our children. Let’s make sure we’re looking out for them on the road, too. 🚌💙

It was great to be part of CEL Harrisonburg - Rockingham's and Explore More Discovery Museum's Back To School Bash on Sunday!

We love being part of these moments and working alongside community partners to help local families get ready for a great school year!

So…who’s ready to go back to school? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️🎉

🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️ Our community’s School Supply Superheroes showed up big at Tools For School! 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

Tools For School doesn’t happen because of one organization. It happens because this awesome community we call home shows up. ❤️

From sorting supplies and stuffing backpacks to greeting families, carrying boxes and doing all the behind-the-scenes work that makes a big event run smoothly, the volunteer superheroes answered the call. 💪📚🎒

And because of YOU, 2,002 stuffed backpacks made their way into the hands of local students at this year’s Tools For School event! That’s the largest number we’ve distributed in the four years we’ve held this event. 🤯🎉

To every volunteer who gave and hour or two or more — THANK YOU! 🥹❤️

We couldn’t do it without you. And we wouldn’t want to. ❤️
