Volunteer Opportunity 2212 Collier Ave

Dear Volunteers,
 
Please note the new email address that will allow me to keep track of the email list in a more efficient way.  Please add nhnproject@gmail.com to your contacts list so it does not go into spam.
 
We will be back at 2212 Collier Ave for the last bathroom clean out and wipe down of more furniture on Saturday, Dec. 11th.  I was originally planning on Dec. 4th but ran into a scheduling conflict.  This step on Saturday, Dec. 11th is very crucial as we have and will achieve the last leg of the clean out.  We made GREAT progress on the last clean out and thank all the volunteers that came to help. 
 
As we all know this is one of the toughest cases that we are working on and we are so blessed for the help that Paint Your Heart Out and Rebuilding Together of the Palm Beaches as provided and volunteers that they have sent to our project.  THANKS JOANNA AND RUTH!!!!  and all our friends with both organizations!!!
 
Dec. 11th we need 5-10 Volunteers, two will be moving the last of the trash out of the master Bathroom so others can bag it and then we need to clean down that bathroom and wipe all the furniture and facilities down to get the rest of the "dust" off of them and help remove the smell.
 
We are moving into the rehab phase of the program and will need some big hearts and help to bring this home up to code and ready for Trixie to move back in!  Please come by on Saturday, Dec. 11th, if not to volunteer but to help check the wiring, plumbing and all other "fix it" items to help make the list so we can go forward with finding the funding and the donations to finish this home.  Again I personally want to thank everyone that has helped in so many ways during this HUGE Event! 
 
Please remember when you go back to your neighborhoods, your family and friends, look around and see if there is a person in need where you live!  Don't just be a good neighbor!  be a GREAT NEIGHBOR by referring those in need to the charities that can help them!  Please find links to various groups atwww.volunteerpalmbeach.blogspot.com and if you have a charity that is not linked and want to have one please send me an email with the web address. 
 
NHNP is not just about working in our area but helping link others to the help they need where ever you live!  And remember that all projects and volunteer opportunities help support your community service hour requirements!
