When HomeAid Inland Empire Executive Director Julie Reay recently made a trip to Reliable Lumber in Riverside to coordinate the dispersion of diapers and wipes from the annual "Essentials for Young Lives" event, she met with Riley Richards of Reliable Lumber, where she presented Riley a certificate for their generous donation of materials to renovate the Central City Lutheran Mission Job-Training House in San Bernardino.
Not only has Reliable Lumber been a supporter of HomeAid Inland Empire's building and renovation projects; Their expansive facility has graciously housed "Essentials for Young Lives" supplies for distribution... pallets of diapers in various sizes, baby wipes... anything they are asked to store. The yard foreman, forklift drivers, pallet wrappers, and truck drivers all help to serve HomeAid Inland Empire's needs when it comes to the apportion of baby essentials.
Thank you Reliable Lumber!

BUILDERS FOR BABIES EVENT...

6/12/2018

0 Comments

 
HomeAid Inland Empire Executive Director Julie Reay, working with HAIE Board Members Carlos Lopez of HMC Architects and Elishama Spicer of Pacific Utility Installation, Inc. represented the Chapter at the annual Builders For Babies event held at Angels Stadium in Anaheim.
Carlos and his team designed the "sculpture" that would serve as the display for HAIE's "Diaper Zone". The complex structure was a walk-through experience that replicated an ocean wave. And that presentation led to a "Mermaid dunk tank", where visitors could attempt to submerge our delightful mermaid - played by Board Member and all-around good sport Elishama Spicer.
Not only was Elishama costumed with a mermaid tail, shimmering top, and glittering star jewelry in her hair, but she had Pacific Utility Installation, Inc. provide the water truck that filled her watery mermaid home.
The successful event brought in over one million diapers, and raised awareness of the need for baby essentials throughout our communities.
HomeAid Inland Empire wishes to thank Carlos Lopez, his volunteers from HMC Architects, and Elishama Spicer of Pacific Utility Installation, Inc., along with their water tank driver, Brian, for assisting during this immense undertaking!
