The Share Fair connects people with resources, services, and each other in a convenient and fun way.

The purpose of the Share Fair is to connect people with resources, services, and each other in a convenient and fun way. The fair will be providing free resources and services from local organizations and community groups to unhoused and working class members of the community. There will be food, live music, games, and a chance to know other Eugene organizations and folks in the community – and it’s all free!

Scarves will be distributed on Saturday, May 28th. Please ensure your shipment arrives in time. 

 

How we are helping:

Summers as an unsheltered person can be brutally hot. They have asked us to help by sewing the cooling scarf.

Things to remember: 

1. Ship dry, do not hydrate beads. 

2. Do not use more than the 1/4 teaspoon of the beads for each section. It doesn't look like many beads but they expand a ton! 

3. If you use a brand of beads we haven't tested, you will want to test their level of "growth" in a test scarf.

If your box will cost you more than $20 to ship, CCHQ is partnered with Give Back Box to get you a $20 UPS label where you can ship up to 50 pounds and 108" in girth to CCHQ.

 

Due to a computer glitch, they send out the same label with the same tracking number to every person and you can't use it. After you receive your label, please immediately email Monika at info@givebackbox.com and ask for a "fresh" label with an unused tracking number. You will get a new label in 1-2 days. This is the label you should use.
