SUMMARY:Home Setup for Ahmadi Family of 5 in Riverdale MD
DESCRIPTION:  \nHelp create a home for a newly resettling Afghan family\, a household of 5\, mom\, dad and 3 children!  Let’s welcome them to our community by turning their mostly empty space into a warm and welcoming home!  Your willingness to jump in and help is truly special and deeply appreciated by this family. \nWe ask that items are dropped off directly with the family as soon as possible by contacting Dad directly by text and arranging to meet them at your earliest convenience.  We hope that you can participate and take advantage this wonderful opportunity to meet the people we serve and to welcome them to our community!  You can also order things to be sent directly to them – you will receive Dad’s name\, contact info and address upon your signing up for things.  (If you do that\, please do let him know what you are sending\, so he can be on the lookout for the package(s).  \nDonation Guidelines\nFurniture 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.  \nPlease ONLY bring those items for which you have signed up unless you have been in touch with Abdullah (the Dad) and received confirmation to bring specific additional items.  The family of 6 will be living in small space (a basement apt)\, so  Less is More!! We appreciate your generosity and your understanding! \nSafety Reminder\nAs with all KindWorks projects\, when you register you do so with the understanding that volunteering may involve physical activity\, the handling of sharp objects and cooking apparatus\, the lifting of heavy objects\, contact with unidentified and unfamiliar persons\, and will require the exercise of reasonable care to avoid injury and/or damage\, and agree to assume any and all risks of personal injury or property damage. \n  \nLearn more about this KindWorks program \n \n\nHome Setup – Ahmadi Family of 5 in Riverdale MD

In the last five minutes\, add the coconut or plant milk\, continue cooking for five minutes.\nSlurry: Mix the cornstarch with cool water. Add to the soup and stir frequently for 1 – 2 minutes until soup slightly thickens. If the soup is too thin\, add more cornstarch slurry as needed until desired consistency is reached.\nRemove from heat and stir in the parsley. Season with salt and pepper.\nServe with homemade Artisan Bread or Naan to soak up the juices and swipe up every last bit of goodness!\n\n\n\nHealth and Safety Information\nIn order to protect the the quality of our KindSoup program\, we ask that volunteers conscientiously observe the following guidelines: \n\nStart with clean hands and wash again frequently as needed throughout the cooking process.\nStart with clean kitchen surfaces and utensils (antibacterial wipes do a great job).\nKeep longer hair tied back.\nFollow other common sense procedures\, such as never returning a tasting spoon to the pot!\n\nThank you for maintaining a high cleanliness standard for our KindSoup donations! \nHow to Donate Your KindSoup\nSeal containers with a tight lid and freeze.
