Hello IWR supporters!

The Basic Needs Sub-Committee would like to thank everyone who has generously donated goods, time, and energy so we will be ready to set up apartments when the refugees arrive. We have received many wonderful donations filling much of our four storage units.

At this time, we are actively seeking only the following items:

Couches
Kitchen Tables
Blankets
Full Size Flat & Fitted Sheets
Can Openers
Alarm Clocks
Lamps
Sponges
Paper Towels
Toilet Paper
Trash Bags, large and small
Bicycles & Helmets
Cribs (if up to code)
Basic Office Supplies (notepaper, pens, tape, etc)
Basic Sewing Kits Goods (scissors, thread, needles, etc)

Please note, we are not accepting any other donations besides the ones listed above at this time. Please spread the word as we know people are excited to donate but we have what we need in other categories.

We will soon send out a couple of dates spread over the next few months when we will pick up the large items (couches, tables, bikes) with a truck. We can arrange separate pick up times for the smaller items with people individually if needed.

We are planning an event for a drive for hygiene goods and cleaning supplies and will keep you updated.

If you would like to donate or know of someone who would, please contact Marge Hansel at margehansel@yahoo.com or Meredith Ernisse at merel...@gmail.com

Thanks for your participation and support!

Meredith Ernisse
Basic Needs Sub-Committee Member
