At top, t-shirts have a message for Election Day :-); just above, AMAZING Saturday volunteers!
Dear We Are Family friends,
First, THANKS to the AMAZING volunteers--some pictured above--who helped save a senior from eviction on Saturday with serious de-cluttering AND also get the bag assembly done swiftly... you are WAF superheroes one and all!
WE ALSO NEED HELP THIS SATURDAY -- AND THE 19th and 22nd AS WELL -- BECAUSE THANKSGIVING IS ABOUT TO BE UPON US!
WE WILL NEED LOTS OF VOLUNTEERS, CARS AND OTHER SUPPORT TO GET THANKSGIVING BASKETS TO OVER 700 SENIORS!
AS IS OUR CUSTOM AT YEAR END, OUR DELIVERIES ARE FLIPPED IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE THE HOLIDAYS... so this week we are in COLUMBIA HEIGHTS!
WE ARE MEETING AT 10AM AT KELSEY APTS, 3322 14th Street NW, near Park Road and Monroe Street and Columbia Heights metro.
Please sign up below or just let Mark know you can help, OK?
Again, THANKS SO MUCH!
Finally, please see this terribly moving excerpt from an essay published today by Harry Belafonte, reflecting on his many years of activism, how America has been transformed in his lifetime, and how we must struggle to ensure that progress is not lost... because it always can be, unless we are vigilant.
AGAIN, THANKS TO ALL... we can't do it w/out you. AND REMEMBER TO GET OUT AND VOTE TODAY!
