At Saginaw Escape, giving back to our community matters just as much as creating great experiences. This winter, we’re teaming up with Feeding Saginaw One Sunday at a Time, a local group that feeds people every Sunday and helps provide essential supplies to those facing homelessness during cold weather.
To encourage meaningful donations that truly help, we’re offering a $25 gift card as a thank-you for qualifying donations. Gift cards can be used toward escape rooms at Saginaw Escape or games at Saginaw GellyBall.
What We’re Collecting
Each qualifying donation must include two parts to ensure items are impactful and usable in real-world conditions.
1️⃣ One Big Cold-Weather or Survival Item
Choose one of the following (or something similar):
- Sleeping bags
- Tents
- Heavy blankets
- Thermal or insulated sleeping pads
- Winter coats or heavy-duty outerwear
- Waterproof tarps
- Large backpacks or duffel bags
- Portable camping stoves (propane or butane)
- Camp cookware or mess kits
- Insulated thermoses or food containers
- Battery-powered lanterns or flashlights
- Solar-powered or hand-crank chargers
These items help individuals and families stay warm, cook food, and survive outdoors with limited or no access to electricity.

Your box can include any mix of:
- Non-perishable food items
