How to Build a Community Blessing & Donations Box

Give back to your community by building a Blessing Box--or a community donation/share box.

You’ve probably seen these donation boxes pop up a lot recently in local communities. Sometimes they’re called “little libraries” where people can share and trade books, sometimes they’re used as a food pantry for those in need.

There are lots of ways to use them to give back to a community, but a friend of mine is using this one as a “blessing box” for new moms—stocking it full of diapers, baby food, formula and other newborn and baby supplies.

As an ultrasound tech and new business owner (you can find her here: hellobabyky.com/ ) catering to new and soon to be mothers, this was something she could post up beside her studio allowing the community to help keep it stocked and place items inside.

New moms can come and take what they need and hopefully pay it forward in helping to restock it later.

Obviously, you can get super creative as to how you want to use this project in your own community, but as always, I’m just here to show you how to put it together. After that, its purpose is up to you.
