Nov 30, 2019 Apartment Setup for My Sister’s Place client

Date: November 30, 2019

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 very young children:   a 2 year old daughter and a 1 year old son.

Please join us on Saturday at 1pm to unload and arrange furniture, put together and make beds, help organize the kitchen, and bring toys for the two toddlers.

Please contact David (davidlouisgordon@icloud.com) with questions.

Many, many thanks!**

Deb, Alexa & David
