April Outreach: CASA's Kings Ridge

Can you help us fill King's Ridge with Love?

CASA has teamed up with our friends over at The Green Chair Project to host a household item drive for King’s Ridge! We’re collecting basic household essentials from Amazon, ranging from measuring spoons, to shower curtains, to comforters, that will help our future residents settle in to their new homes. A well-stocked home is the best, most respectful gift we can offer as these folks transition out of homelessness! To make a purchase, click on the link below. Please note: Items must be shipped to the Green Chair Project. When checking out, choose "The Green Chair Project" that will appear in the shipping address section.

About King's Ridge

King’s Ridge is CASA’s biggest, most ambitious new construction community to date. This community will have 100 1- 2- and 3- bedroom units specifically designated for individuals and families with children exiting homelessness in Wake County. We’ll have on-site medical clinics, case managers, a tenant liaison, flexible community space, and more. King’s Ridge is under construction now, and when it opens in the Fall, we’re excited to provide a safe, comfortable, and healing home to folks who are currently experiencing homelessness.
