Susan,
Sure. We’ll put you on our update list. And your offer of your two spare
rooms is wonderful. Thank you!
Please email me directly so we can discuss further.

I’d love to follow the progress that you’re making possible for this family.
I have a couple spare rooms in my house, and have been thinking of doing the
same and this might give me some idea of what to expect

Hi Abi!
My girls and I would like to help with clothing and some art supplies and
toys they are happy to share/donate to them. Since they fall close in age to
themselves. How should we proceed?
We may also have some housewares we can pull together that would be
appropriate for a new home for them.
We have some nice adult clothing to donate to the parents as well if we know
the sizes.
Thanks so much!
Meg

Hello
A couple of us in the neighborhood, along with a few others in Silver
Spring, are sponsoring a Ukrainian family to seek safe haven and come live
in the U.S. We are fundraising to provide them a home for their first
three months here, plus food, clothing and other essentials. If you would
be so kind to help out, we’d really appreciate it. The link, with more
information and a photo of the family, can be found here:

Also, if you would like to follow the family’s progress through brief
updates every 1-2 weeks, you can email jmw328@xxxxxxxxx
<mailto:jmw328@xxxxxxxxx> and you will be added to a group list for news of
their arrival, settling in, etc. This list will be anonymous (no emails
shared publicly), and does not imply any expectation of contributions . . .
other than creating positive vibes for the family and effort!
Thanks so much!
Abi Rome and Helen Fox
