United Way and the members of the Housing
Collaborative have been working hard to
secure permanent housing for many who are
homeless or precariously housed.
Their warehouse is starting to clear out and
need your help. What is needed: dressers,
tables/chairs, couches, bed frames (they
usually get a number of mattresses), side
tables, coffee tables and right now especially
washer and dryers. They have three new units
that do not have washers and dryers. Household goods needed: pans, dishes, silverware,
utensils, towels, comforters, rugs, and anything
else that a household could use.
On behalf of the families that have and will be
housed and with furnishings, United Way
Thanks You!
For more details, see the yellow flyer on the
community bulletin board.
