This year's Garage Giveaway on August 16, 2025, was a very big success! We had so many wonderful donations, and students pre-registered at several events before the big day, then came to outfit their new homes.

As always, our volunteers were amazing: they sorted and carried donations, guided students around the different stations of the event, delivered goods and students to their homes, supported and fed other volunteers after the huge effort, and helped clean up afterwards.

Best of all, PRISM staff and volunteers met, welcomed, and talked to many of these international students several times. There were so many familiar faces at the welcome dinner on Monday, August 18--and that is wonderful news, because lives can be impacted for the kingdom when we are able to build relationship with these newcomers! You, our supporters, make this possible.

If you've never volunteered at any of these welcome events, please consider doing so; it's a fantastic time of fellowship with sisters and brothers, and a chance to be Jesus to the stranger!
