Happy New Year to all residents of Springdale Estates! Now that the year has ended and 2013 is upon us, I want to post an update concerning the Housing for New Hope charity collection. Several of you had mentioned that you may be able to donate more items after the new year. If you are ready to donate, we are ready to accept your items! In fact, we will be continuing to collect items through February. So far, we have collected two truckloads of household items, including a set of bunk beds, some dining chairs, some living room furniture, several bags of clothing, rugs, lamps, mirrors, curtains, and more. Thank all of you so much for your generosity! Unfortunately, we are no longer accepting electronics such as televisions or computers. However, furnishings, small kitchen appliances, and toiletries are very much still needed and appreciated. Thank you very much for your time, energy, and donations. If you need to contact us, call 919-xxx-xxxx. Our email address is xxxxxxxx@yahoo.com. Please remember to email your phone number and physical address so we can contact you and find you when you're ready to donate. Sincerely, Noah King 8520 Valley Brook Dr http://www.housingfornewhope.org/
