Jan 18, 2020 Apartment Setup for My Sister’s Place client

Date: January 18, 2020

Help furnish and set up a home for a client of My Sister’s Place in DC, who was forced to leave her previous home to escape domestic abuse.   This home will be for her and her 2 young children:   a 6 year old daughter and a 2 year old son.

Please join us on Saturday at noon to unload and arrange furniture, put together and make beds, help organize the kitchen, and bring toys for the two children.

Please contact Alexa (540) 538-9696 with questions.

Many, many thanks!**

Deb Lang and  Alexa Abdelatey
