Only 3 Days Left to Help The Homeless Enjoy a Meal in the Great Outdoors!

Norwalk's Open Door Shelter is crowdfunding for tables and umbrellas for their shelter, and their crowdfunding project ends this Saturday.

During the summer months  there’s nothing nicer than getting to sit outside and enjoy the weather. Unfortunately, The Open Door Shelter only has one outdoor table – not ideal for so many families!

Right now, their after-school program crowds around that one outdoor table to read, celebrate warm weather birthdays, and do messy science experiments. (Fun with bubbles! Lemon volcanoes! Making greenhouses!) More tables with patio umbrellas would let kids and teachers spread out and have more elbow room.

These tables are also great for their parents – families can spend more time together outdoors, and parents can have a comfortable place to watch their kids play on the playground.

With your help, families at The Open Door Shelter can have a fun and productive summer outdoors! For $540, they can purchase two patio tables with umbrellas that will fit the space and be sturdy enough to last for years to come.

Two tables at $129 each:               $258
Three umbrellas at $59 each:         $177
Three bases at $35 each:               $105
TOTAL:                                         $540

Cost to purchase outdoor tables and umbrellas: $540
