Help create a home for a newly resettling Afghan family of four: mom, dad, and two children – an 11-year-old daughter and a 10-year-old son. They are settling into an apartment in Silver Spring, Maryland. Let’s extend a warm welcome to them by transforming their apartment into a cozy and welcoming home! Your willingness to assist is deeply appreciated by this family.

While the family has some essentials, they still need additional items to make their new home complete. We kindly ask that items be dropped off directly with the family as soon as possible. You can contact Dad directly by text to arrange a convenient time to meet them. We hope you’ll participate in this wonderful opportunity to meet the family and welcome them to our community!

If you prefer, you can also order items to be sent directly to the family’s address. Upon signing up to contribute, you will receive Dad’s name, contact information, and address. Please inform him of any packages you send so he can be on the lookout for them.

Thank you for your generosity and support in helping this family settle into their new home!

Donation Guidelines

Furniture must be in very good condition, with no chips, tears, or stains. Other household goods should be new or very gently used. In addition, all donations must be clean and completely free of pet hair, cobwebs, and cigarette smoke. For donated bed linens, package same-size linens together in a bag or box that is labeled with the bedding size contained therein. 

Please ONLY bring those items for which you have signed up unless you have been in touch with Mohammad (the Dad) and received confirmation to bring specific additional items.  The family of 4 will be living in small apt, so Less is More!! We appreciate your generosity and your understanding!
