At Room & Board, we believe that community involvement contributes to our overall wellness-both as individuals and as a company.<\/p>\n

Our Minnesota market partners with CommonBond Communities<\/a>, a local non-profit organization that manages affordable housing complexes in Minneapolis and St. Paul for families and senior citizens. As our partnership develops, staff members from each of our Twin Cities locations find ways to respond to the needs of our friends in CommonBond’s communities and create opportunities for us to share our time and talents.<\/p>\n

A Minnesota-Based Partnership<\/h2>\n

The partnership first started in May 2012 and has been going strong ever since. Staff members from the Central Office, Edina showroom, Minneapolis \/ St. Paul & National delivery center, Minnesota warehouse and Minnesota Outlet all spend time working with this community partner.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most rewarding part is knowing that we\u2019re helping the residents at CommonBond in a way that they don\u2019t always have time to get to,\u201d said Brenda Blank, Minnesota Outlet manager. \u201cAdding opportunity for community at CommonBond is where I love to put my energy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many opportunities for volunteerism<\/h2>\n

Staff members have fixed up outdoor spaces with new furniture and raised flower beds. They have also led fun events including a bbq and pizza in the park, built a shed for residents to store their outdoor furniture and supplies, served meals, donated books and more.<\/p>\n

Our teams manage a school supply drive annually and a winter hat, mittens and blanket drive, bringing in many donations to share with the residents. Room & Board also supports the annual gala, a large fundraising event for the nonprofit organization.<\/p>\n

Making a difference<\/h2>\n

CommonBond\u2019s Fort Snelling property<\/a> is a newer property. They purchased the building and renovated it into one-bedroom apartments for homeless veterans. Recently, our team from the Central Office reorganized the supply room that was in desperate need of some TLC.<\/p>\n

CommonBond staff members are busy with the day-to-day work of running the buildings and they are busy with residents. A team of eight Room & Board staff members collaborated and made a huge impact with a few hours and $400 worth of shelving. \u201cIt was a complete 180 on that storage space,\u201d said Brenda.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor most of us that work at Room & Board, life is ok. We tend to forget how hard some people have it,\u201d said a Central office staff member. \u201cPart of my passion for Fort Snelling comes from having had family members who served in the military, including my son-in-law who we lost as a result of the war in Iraq. Re-integration is a challenge many of us can’t really understand. The Fort Snelling property supports veterans who are without a home, helping them regain a sense of integrity and belonging; something we all need.\u201d<\/p>\n

Veterans Day<\/h2>\n

For Veterans Day, the Twin Cities team delivered mugs filled with treats and a thank you card to the veterans at the Fort Snelling property in honor of their service.<\/p>\n

Other opportunities<\/h2>\n

Room & Board also provides furniture and other donations to the overall organization or properties for certain needs as they arise.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis work helps residents take pride in where they are living and making it feel more personal. It\u2019s not just another apartment. It\u2019s a home\u201d Brenda said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

CommonBond Communities, the Midwest’s largest nonprofit provider of affordable housing and support services, has served the region for over 40 years.<\/p>\n
