Hi all,
A few more logistics.? The storage space is unheated and we will be inside and outside.? Please dress appropriately.? You probably want to bring gloves and a hat.? Emily, will you have any additional space in your car?? Sara has a few items to donate but I have a house full of donations already so our car will likely be full.? If not, Sara, you can leave them at our house and we'll drive them over some other time.? Please reply all since I may not be able to check back in until tomorrow.?
Catherine, see below for address.? If any of you want to caravan over, please meet in front of our house at 8:45am and if you can think of it, please txt me to let? me know - 703-864-9014.
?
Also, if any of you can think of people to help us, that would be very helpful.? We really need a crew of atleast 10 to 15?but so far I'm coming up empty handed.
Thank you all!!!!
Best,
Lisa?

Sounds like we have a crew!? The address is:

Cheverly Self Storage at Tuxedo Rd, Hyattsville

5556 Tuxedo Rd
Hyattsville, MD 20781 (It's actually Cheverly)
It is not an easy place to find so I'm happy to caravan over.? I can take one person in our car (unfortunately we now have 3 carseats in the back and they are a pain to remove). Sara, do you want to ride with me?
So far confirmed, it will be Jessica,?Sandy, Sara, Emily, Andre, and I.? We have a TON of items to sort through so we'll be busy.? Thank you all!
Lisa

Hi Folks,
We had a great weekend on the Hill with many donations made (especially on Sunday) and this week, we are holding a drive at Yu Ying and have received a ton of items!? This is all great news.? Now we need help sorting through all of our donations prior to the next drive on the 3rd and 4th in Alexandria.? I had initially thought I could plan for this at our house, but given the number of goods collected, I think it's best to have a sorting team / party (yes, there will be doughnuts and coffee if that will entice you out to our lovely storage unit) over the weekend.? We have rented a space in Cheverly MD which is about a 10 to 15 minute drive from the Hill.? Our space is a drive up space and opens out to a large (and seemingly empty) parking lot.? Although not necessarily a child friendly event, I could envision kdis hanging out in the parking lot and playing with some of our donated toys as we sort through boxes and bags of donations.? There is very little traffic at this location.?
?
You all have expressed an interest in volunteering (in some cases a second time) and so I'd like to propose either meeting on Saturday or Sunday for +/- 4 hours.? I'm free both days up until about 3:30 or 4pm, and if I can get 4 (or more) of you to help me on one of those days, I think we can knock out a good chunk of work.
?
Thanks in advance,
Lisa
