Founder with Taco Joe

Pass It On with Dignity

For as long as I can remember, I've believed that the things we no longer need can become something meaningful to someone else.

I finally got my own pickup truck—Taco Joe, named after my beloved Grandpa Joe—and it became my way of helping. Together, we've transported hundreds of donations, helped families downsize, cleaned out homes, and delivered countless items to people who needed them.

One item at a time

Pass It On with Dignity

Hanging from the mirror is an old keychain — a quiet reminder that every mile and every donation carries forward a legacy of kindness and generosity. That legacy is what drives my mission: to transform excess into impact, ensuring meaningful items are passed on thoughtfully and respectfully.

That legacy is what inspired Pass It On With Dignity: turning what we have into what someone else needs, and making sure those things are passed on thoughtfully, respectfully and with dignity.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

Fill a Purse - Our First Community Project

Fill a Purse
Coming this Fall

Fill a Purse

Have gently loved purses taking up space in your closet? Pass them on!

Donate as many as you can spare. Don't worry about filling them — we'll take care of that at our Fill It Forward community event!

We'll come together to fill each purse with practical essentials, a little something extra, and lots of care. Then we'll deliver the completed purses to local organizations supporting women who are starting fresh.

How It Works

  • 1. Donate a purse
  • 2. Help fill it
  • 3. Deliver it
  • 4. Someone receives it WITH DIGNITY
