June 8 Apartment Setup for 2 Eritrean Refugees

Date: June 8, 2019

KindWorks is thrilled to furnish an apartment for two Eritrean men in Parkview Gardens, Riverdale, MD, where KindWorks sets up most of our apartments. They are arriving through International Rescue Committee.

We will transform the empty apartment into a fully furnished, warm and comfortable home. We invite you to join us for an hour or two to unload and arrange furniture, organize the bedroom and kitchen, put together and make the bed, and hang art. Many hands make light work and it’s a lot of fun! **

Thank you for donating good, dignity quality furniture and furnishings-clean, unstained, pet-hair-, cobweb- and smoke -free, like something you would want to gift to a close relative!

The total setup usually takes about 2.5 hours from start to finish, depending somewhat on the number of volunteers and the quantity of furniture. 

Please email Alexa at aabdelatey@earthlink.net or call (540) 538-9696 at any time in the process if you have questions. 

Many, many thanks!

Sincerely,

 

Alexa Abdelatey
