Request for Snow Support
Whenever there is snowfall of less than 2 inches, we need volunteers to clear the FUSW front steps and crosswalk (NOT the parking lot or driveway). We especially need this on weekdays for our renters (e.g., yoga classes). There are shovels, a broom, and salt on the front porch, just waiting to be used to make our space welcoming! Contact
Nancy Eisenman
(914-779-3345).
