works with the nonprofit to coordinate the pickup of the donated
items.
The donated items typically consist of:

At the heart of Happen Ventures is a commitment to community
upliftment. By donating items to those in need, they not only

resources, saving them from the landfill and giving them a new
purpose. Nonprofits are gaining exclusive access to a variety of
