Re: In search of newspapers
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýSome local stores like kings sell the papers and I'm sure at end of day they may have extras. Maybe they might be willing to give them to ?you. ?On Jan 28, 2025, at 10:11?AM, vera219 via groups.io <vera219@...> wrote:

In search of newspapers
Hi there! I will be working on an art project with my students next month, and I¡¯m looking for about a dozen newspapers. If you still read a physical newspaper, I would greatly appreciate it if you could hold on to two weeks¡¯ worth for me. Alternatively, if you have any already piled up and waiting to be recycled, those would be perfect too! Thank you so much in advance for your help! Best regards, `/era |
End Poverty in Essex County, One Family at a Time
Hello! Hello! I am excited to share a high impact volunteer opportunity that?kicks off in?February. Economic disparities are striking in Essex County.? Nearly one in five children in our county live in poverty.? We've all contributed to various drives or volunteered at food banks, which do make a difference, but fall far short of?helping families achieve lasting economic self-sufficiency. A program called??run by the Montclair-based nonprofit Family Promise of Essex offers a radical new approach.? The program provides a 3 month training program followed by an 18 month period of intentional relationship building across income lines.? "Allies" walk alongside "Leaders" as they work to overcome poverty.? This is a tested model?that?has been used for over 25 years in Circles programs across the US. On average, participants increase their income by 75%. I was part of the very first Circles cohort in Essex County where I was matched with three other Allies and a struggling single?mom of three.? Ultimately, our Circle Leader was able to get job?training, embark on a new career, get her kids in better schools, and find more stable and affordable housing.? I came away with my eyes opened to the many obstacles she was up against and so impressed by her tenacity to?create a better life for her kids. If you are interested in being part of the 2nd??cohort, please reach out to Circles Program Coordinator, Gabe Sahyoun at?gabriel@....? There are additional volunteer opportunities available beyond the Ally role. Regards, Mitali |
IKEA Delivery Mistake - Free bookcases
I ordered this bookcase from IKEA.? The order came yesterday in?two heavy?boxes.? Each box has the bookcase sides and shelves but is missing the backs. IKEA will resend the correct items to me but will not take away the already delivered items. IKEA says it is not worth the cost to them to pick up the returned items and that I can keep them. So if anyone wants these let me know.? I am not sure if IKEA sells the backs separately. A handy person could perhaps make the backs or use the shelving without the back. Be creative!? Please contact me if you want these. I hate to waste stuff.? Carmel |
