Opportunity Details

March 2026 DIY: CARE Kits

Established in 1996, LifeNet4Families serves individuals and families experiencing homelessness and food insecurity in Broward County. Through daily meals, access to showers and hygiene facilities, and supportive services, LifeNet4Families provides stability, dignity, and critical resources to thousands of community members each year.

In support of their mission, volunteers will assemble C.A.R.E. Kits (Community Access to Real-life Essentials) filled with practical, everyday items. These thoughtfully prepared kits are designed to include items that can be genuinely used and carried with ease — offering comfort, protection, and meaningful support to those LifeNet4Families serve.

PLEASE FOLLOW ALL STEPS (missing steps will delay hours verification process):

  1. Express interest below. For all DIY Projects, you do not need to wait for email confirmation. Continue with the next steps. *

  3. Follow the instructions in the packet. These projects will be provided to real people who will use these items. We ask that you make a true effort to treat each kit with care, quality, and respect — just as you would if you were giving it to someone you know personally.
