Newby-ginnings of North Idaho, Inc,

Newby-ginnings of North Idaho, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization created in October 2013 in honor and in memory of SPC Nicholas Newby who was killed in action in Baghdad, Iraq on July 7, 2011. Our mission is to provide resources, referrals and essential personal and household items to Veterans, active military and their families as well as families of our fallen heroes (Gold Star families) at absolutely no cost to them. All that is required is proof of military service, past or present, for the client or a household family member. We are able to do this with nothing but donations and fundraisers because no money ever exchanges hands. There are no income eligibility requirements or any kind of proof of need necessary. Newby-ginnings achieves this mission by accepting donations of basic but essential items, including kitchenware, bath ware, linens, furniture, appliances, medical equipment, food as well as clothing, shoes and cold weather gear from the community. These items are then "processed" to ensure that they are clean and functional before being placed on the shelves for distribution in our shop for our clients.
