How to Fund a Full Month of Storage in One Afternoon
Support that takes hours - not months - and makes impact that lasts all year.
What if just one afternoon could help us protect life-saving supplies, organize emergency outreach, and power our programs for an entire month?
It can.
With a one-time donation of $100, you can fund a full month of storage for Innovoreach’s critical outreach materials. This includes hygiene kits, donated clothing, emergency blankets, weather-appropriate gear, and essential program supplies that help us serve people experiencing homelessness and housing insecurity across North Alabama.
And with just a few intentional steps, you can reach that $100 goal, or go even further, in a single afternoon.
Here’s how:
1. Start With Your Circle
It begins with one ask.
Reach out to ten friends or family members and ask them to give $10 each toward your personal goal to sponsor a full month of storage. Most people want to help and just need a clear way to do it.
“I’m helping fund a nonprofit’s supply storage for one month. It costs $100 total. Can you chip in $10?”
That is a simple message that makes it easy to say yes.

2. Ask a Small Business to Cover It
If you own a small business, manage a team, or have a close connection with a local brand, this is the perfect sponsorship opportunity.
For only $100, a business can:
Sponsor one full month of secure storage
Keep community resources safe, dry, and ready for distribution
Receive a public thank-you via social media and email
Be part of a visible, measurable impact
Want to do more? Businesses can also sponsor:
3 months for $300
6 months for $600
9 months for $900
12 months for $1,200
It is affordable, tax-deductible, and community-centered.
3. Donate Directly to Support the Easy Way
We use Zeffy because it is one of the only donation platforms that allows 100% of your gift to go directly to us with no hidden fees or cuts.
You can:
Donate directly as an individual
Create a mini team goal with friends or coworkers
Share the storage campaign link on your social media, group chats, or newsletters
Every time someone gives, it helps us cover one more month of storage, which means one more month of outreach readiness.
4. Host a Micro-Fundraiser
Do you have a couple of hours to spare?
Try hosting a fast, easy micro-fundraiser like:
A lunch-hour bake sale at your job
A “Sponsor the Month” challenge on Instagram stories
A Facebook Live where you talk about Innovoreach and drop the link
A group text where you challenge 5 people to give $20
You do not need to plan a full event. You just need a clear ask and a short timeframe.
One focused afternoon can bring in $100 or more when people understand what their money is supporting!
5. Share Why Storage Matters
People often overlook how vital storage is. But for us, it is the difference between order and chaos, readiness and delay.
Your sponsorship helps us:
Organize and access items quickly for outreach
Store weather-specific gear without worrying about damage
Keep hygiene kits clean and safe until distribution
Receive large donations without space issues
When you fund storage, you keep us mobile, organized, and community-ready. That kind of support saves lives.
Final Thought: Your Afternoon Can Power Our Mission for a Month
Storage may not seem glamorous, but behind every hygiene kit, blanket, and emergency supply is the space that kept it safe.
You have the power to fund one month, one quarter, or one year of that space in just one afternoon.
Whether you are an individual supporter or a small business looking to make a big impact, this is your moment to say, “I’ll cover it.”
Give below, share the link, or challenge others to match you.
Because what happens in a few hours can fuel our work for weeks to come.
