Pete Davis
Pete has been volunteering since 2018 and his employer, DeLine Box & Display, has helped supply boxes for the Mission’s Turkey Drive and Thanksgiving Banquet in-a-Box event since 2019.
What inspired DeLine Box & Display to help support the Mission during Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving is a time when many people and organizations focus on giving back and helping others. DeLine Box’s inspiration to support comes from a combination of gratitude, a sense of community and the desire to give others a reason to feel hopeful and cared for.
What is one of your favorite Mission memories?
With Denver weather being so unpredictable, one never knows if it will be t-shirts or parkas when volunteering for the Turkey Drive. We have had some hot days and some super chilly ones but no matter, generous folks always come through to donate!
What would you say to encourage someone else to get involved with the Mission?
It’s an incredible opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those in need. Imagine how much brighter someone’s day could be because of your support! Your involvement can range from donating your time, resources or skills, and every bit helps create a ripple effect of kindness. It’s a chance to connect with others, share in the spirit of giving and see firsthand the impact of your generosity. Why not take this opportunity to give back? Join us in supporting the Mission and help create positive change in our community!
