Story
Pillow in the Park began with a single accidental Facebook and has achieved amazing results.
Throughout the Christmas period and to date, Pillow in the Park has delivered over 2000 of your amazing donations directly to the homeless on the pavement. Saving lives in many cases.
Now we need our own van with the logo on as this is the only thing stopping us continuing our work. We plan to distribute clothes in addition to the bedding project. This is just the beginning of our mission to help!
We have built invaluable trust with the homeless. My wish is for our logo to become a symbol of trust and warmth on the street.
WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Please help us to continue our work.
Even the smallest donation will help to keep this project afloat.
Please help if you are able to, and more importantly, share this with your friends and family.
Thank you so much!
Spencer

7 years agoA massive thank you to all who have donated towards our van! Spencer and volunteer Richard, took a full load of duvets to Reading last Friday. Within an hour they distributed over 50 duvets to the guys on the streets. The next duvet mission is planned for Brighton. Exciting times ahead in Pillow HQ, as we get ready to launch Pillow Box, our new project! We really need to get a van on the road permanently to keep making the pavements more comfortable all year round, all over the country. Please share our page with your friends. Thank you x

7 years agoSpencer would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has donated so far! What your helping to achieve goes beyond supplying a van, but is supplying a lifeline to the guys on the street who so desperately need some warmth throughout the cold winter months! Thank you so much and please keep sharing with your family and friends. Every little donation helps us to get closer to our goal and helps us to continue what we've started! Thank you !! xxxx
