This call to action is for transforming of lives, creating jobs, and building a more resilient community around us. Spring Back’s current fundraising campaign is integral to Nashville’s long-term well-being, and every single contribution counts. Here’s a closer look at what your donations will help achieve and why they’re vital for Nashville’s future.
The Urgent Need for Space to Continue Green Initiatives
The growth of Spring Back has been exponential thanks to people like you! The inflow of used mattresses and box springs for recycling has far surpassed our warehouse’s capacities. Our 2024 goal is to raise $600,000 to acquire a larger storage facility. This expanded space won’t just accommodate more mattresses but will serve as a long-term vision to help change lives in Nashville.
Long-Term Vision: Transitional Housing for Reintegration into Society
Spring Back provides employment to people facing significant barriers due to their past experiences. Your support means these individuals get more than a job; they receive a second chance. The ripple effects in their lives and those of their families are immeasurable. Our vision doesn’t halt at recycling at a new warehouse. However, with a larger warehouse, the goal is to establish on-site transitional housing for previously incarcerated individuals, who are SpringBack employees returning to society. This initiative would provide invaluable support and consistency to Spring Back’s employees as they reintegrate into the workforce, learn how to live responsible lives, and process mattresses onsite. Such holistic support and accountability is rare and could make a monumental difference to the transition of recovering employees.
Your commitment is pivotal. Here’s how you can join Spring Back’s mission to secure a sustainable future for Nashville.
Spring Back’s Donation Program:
Every dollar you generously give brings Nashville closer to a sustainable future. Donating to Spring Back’s fundraising campaign directly resolves our immediate concern and supports long-term goals. Financial contributions are not simply monetary; they’re investments in a cleaner, greener city and in the lives of its residents.
Recycle Your Mattress & Box Springs:
Don’t just dispose of your old mattress; recycle it with Spring Back. We have multiple locations across Nashville (and other parts of the US) and we invite you to view which local, recycle drop-off location is closest to you, here! This dual-purpose act efficiently handles waste disposal and adds to the resources the non-profit can sell to fund its operations. It’s a simple but significant way to contribute to Spring Back continuing to be self-supporting, like we teach our employees.
Be an Advocate:
Spread the word. The more people who know about Spring Back and its mission, the more potential there is for support. Use your voice and your influence to raise awareness about this important cause. Encouraging others to donate or recycle their mattresses is an act of amplifying our ability to reach the greater part of our community. Additionally, you can visit our Recycling Voting Poll to quickly give us a “Thumbs Up” to advocate for more recycle drop-off locations around town–let the local decision makers know what you want!
