Involving The Students

Without a Roof is a charitable organization that helps the refugees currently residing in Sacramento, California. This year, a considerable number of high school students joined this club, with the intention to make the world a better place for the refugees relocating to this area. Many local organizations and businesses are supporting us, including Oak Ridge High School, Morris Law Group, Hoybjerg Family Orthodontics, and many more. Without a Roof.

We will have many collections drives that will gather useful items for the refugees’ use. The student members of Without a Roof will organize and staff the collections drives. To fund the drives and costs, Shiver Sisters donates a portion of their profits to Without a Roof. Some of the drives that are coming up are the warm and fuzzy drive, awareness and love drive, back to school drive, and the most current one, the hygiene drive where we collect items like shampoos, conditioners, and soaps. Overall, the students of Without a Roof are the heart and soul of the club.

Serve It Up!

We were thankful for all the support of sales at the Chris Craft Varsity Volleyball Tournament this weekend at Oak Ridge High School.  A huge thank you to Shiver Sisters who worked with us to sell snow cones and graciously donated a percentage of the proceeds. We had a wonderful time, the snow cones were amazing, and we enjoyed all the acquaintances made. We appreciate our sponsors, Oak Ridge High School, all the volleyball teams, families, friends, coaches and those that donated directly to Without A Roof. Your donations are greatly appreciated and will be used to complete kits collected at our upcoming Hygiene Kit Drive starting Monday, September 26th and running thru October 7th. We will be back next week for the Junior Varsity Tournament, if you didn't get enough this weekend, we hope you come back for more and stay a while to cheer on these amazing athletes!

Who Are Refugees?

The United Nations definition of a refugee is a person who has been forced to flee their home country and is unable to return because of a risk of persecution due to race, nationality, religion, or membership to a political or social group. 65.3 million people worldwide have been involuntarily displaced in some way, and a third of those people are now living as refugees in a foreign country.  They were forced to trade in their old lifestyles, their homes and their family and friends for a new life of uncertainty and hardships.  The refugee crisis is getting more severe every year, and yet it is not receiving the amount of attention that it deserves. Please support Without A Roof and come alongside us as we strive to improve the lives of those in need.
