Evanston Lighthouse invites you to join us in supporting individuals who have moved from homelessness to stable housing at Reba Place Development Corp., a developer of Affordable Housing in Evanston and a beneficiary of our club’s Taste of Evanston Fundraiser. 
 
Often, newly housed individuals arrive with minimal belongings – lacking essentials such as bedding, towels, and kitchen utensils.
 
An Amazon Gift List has been developed and ordering is very simple.  Just click on this link to go to the Reba Place Amazon Gift List.  Click on the listing for your preferred gift item, check out and your purchase will be shipped directly to the Reba Place administrator who will give the item(s) to the resident.  Reba Place is a 501(c)3 charitable organization.
 
Items include:   
$20 – $50 range: towel sets, bathmats, shower curtain, pillows, dinnerware sets. 
$50 - $100 range: bedding (comforter, sheets), mattresses, mattress frames and cookware.
 
If you have any questions about the ordering process, contact Bruce Baumberger at gov.bruce@gmail.com
 
Please share this opportunity with your club members.  And, thank you for joining us in supporting those experiencing homelessness and our advocacy in support of increased Affordable Housing.
