As many of you know Bill Riemer and I have been working and praying to put together a plan that would be as inclusive to everyone involved in furnishing the Corona Norco Rescue Mission. Please be sure to read the last paragraph for an opportunity to help. We will both be in the foyer Sunday @ Crossroads on Sunday March 11^th & 18^th if you would like to talk to us directly…Todd

The Corona Norco Rescue Mission needs your help in doing something extraordinary for homeless men, women and children here in Corona.  Construction is complete and we are now working on furnishing the newly remodeled CNRM.  We invite you, your family, your office, church or community group to take part in furnishing, assembling and/or decorating the 17 individual living areas that will provide a safe and secure environment for up to 70 of the least, the last and the lost of our community.

In keeping with the Rescue Mission’s successful philosophy of creating an environment of beauty in order to elevate expectations and increase student motivation to succeed; we are seeking to furnish the living spaces with new items, provided by individuals and organizations who share our vision of making a significant impact in the lives of the less fortunate.  To assist these individuals in rising to the challenge of transforming their lives in order to meet the common goal of achieving a self-sufficient lifestyle, we desire to provide a space where they feel welcomed, loved, safe and secure.

We have four separate categories of living areas defined below.  Each category has its own specific needs in terms of type and amount of items.  All rooms are in need of beds, bedding, storage and furnishings.  We would greatly appreciate your donation of time, treasure and talents in order to meet these needs.  For your prayerful consideration we have put together the following donation packages:

Ø  (3) Family Rooms @ $1975 each (beds, bedding, storage and furnishings for a family of 5)

Ø  (3) Single Mother Rooms @ $1,875 each (beds, bedding, storage and furnishings for a single mother and 3 children)

Ø  (6) Semi Private Female living areas @ $1,725 each (beds, bedding, storage and furnishings for 4 single women, or a single mother with up to 3 children)

Ø  (5) Semi Private Male living areas @ $1,725 each (beds, bedding, storage and furnishings for 4 single men)

If you would like to partner with us by sponsoring a room or living area please click on this donation link (active beginning on 03/10/2012).  During the donation process you will be given the opportunity to indicate whether or not you would like to assist in assembling and or decorating the living spaces, and will be contacted shortly thereafter by our volunteer coordinator to arrange a time and date.

If you are interested in purchasing and donating beds, bedding, storage or furnishings for a room separately, please contact CNRM staff at 951-279-1300 in order to discuss the specific needs of a particular room and have any questions answered.
