Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E. Association family! The Dallas, TX Stand Down is this week! It is one of our biggest Stand Downs and one of our long-time partners. Not to show favoritism or anything, but we will always have a soft spot for our hometown! On that note, we are still accepting donations for this event. If you are in the DFW area and would like to donate to our cause, Victoria will be in Dallas the day before the Stand Down, October 22, to collect your lovingly handcrafted gifts. Please reach out as soon as you can so that we can make arrangements for pickup on that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also had a few concerns from our amazing community about sending their donations to our P.O. Box. But never fear – we\u2019ve got you! We\u2019ve done our homework and even did some test runs. We can categorically state that, yes, you can send your amazingly beautiful, handcrafted gifts to our P.O. Box. We want to make donating even easier for you \u2014 especially if you\u2019ve ever scratched your head wondering how to send packages to a P.O. Box using UPS or FedEx.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here\u2019s the scoop: Yes, you absolutely can<\/em> send donations via UPS and FedEx to our P.O. Box.<\/strong> Thanks to a helpful USPS service called Street Addressing<\/strong>, we\u2019re able to receive both<\/em> postal mail and <\/em>packages from private carriers like UPS and FedEx.<\/p>\n\n\n\n How Does It Work, you ask? It\u2019s easy, here\u2019s how:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Instead of writing just \u201cP.O. Box 1583,\u201d you\u2019ll format the address like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n T.H.R.I.V.E. Association C\/O Victoria Walker<\/strong> The key is using the physical street address<\/strong> of the post office, followed by our box number preceded by a \u201c#\u201d<\/strong> (not \u201cP.O. Box\u201d).<\/p>\n\n\n\n This tells the driver to deliver it to the post office building, and USPS will place the package safely in our box or hold it for us to pick up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Why This Is Awesome for our Amazing Donors<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n As always, we are beyond grateful for your kindness, generosity, and support. Every package, every donation, every gesture \u2014 it all makes a huge difference in helping us accomplish our mission to end veteran homelessness.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Happy Monday, dear T.H.R.I.V.E.
