Blessing Boxes by Ron
Take what you need. Give what you can.
A Blessing Box is a small, freely accessible pantry stocked by neighbors for neighbors. Anyone can take what they need, and anyone can leave something for the next person.
Our boxes are hand-built by Ron Dorsey, an 83-year-old Vietnam War veteran and GOTURSIX founder, who gives his time and skill to serving his neighbors across the Ozarks.
The first Blessing Box launched July 4, 2026.
About the Boxes
Each weather-protected box includes four shelves, full doors, and a raised base. With approximately $100 in materials, another box can be built and placed in a Wright County community.
A typical box can hold:
60–90 canned goods
30–40 boxed items
Hygiene and household supplies
Once placed, each box is cared for by a local Blessing Box Steward and supported by neighbors who help keep it stocked.

Build One in Your Community
You don't need GOTURSIX to start helping your neighbors.
Ron shares his materials list so anyone can build a Blessing Box and create another place for neighbors to help neighbors.
Thank You to Our Sponsors
Together, we're building food access one Blessing Box at a time.
