Homeless Family Move -- this Sunday the 28th


OK, I’m a bit of a knucklehead, but I have so many friends bail me out. . . . Here’s another opportunity.

Sunday afternoon we’re packing the truck for a homeless family moving to Spokane. They’ve been in transitional housing for the past 16 months. Nightwatch friends have helped them with furniture, trips to the Puyallup fair, the initial hotel room, car repairs. It has been a truly miraculous saga, which included emergency carotid artery surgery for Dad.

We’re looking for able bodies from about 12:30 pm to 4:30 pm. There are a bunch of stairs, some heavy furniture, likely aggravation. Who’s in? J

Email me at downtowner@msn.com. You are the best.

If you can’t make it and want to contribute to the costs of the truck and driver, gas fare, and incidentals, let me know. I’ve collected some. Need about $300 more at this point.
