Local Facebook Friends: I am in **DIRE** need of the following furniture items:
• Bed. Single, Double, Queen, King... doesn't matter the size.
• Dresser
• Sofa/couch
• Coffee Table
• Television
• Shower Curtain
I have a truck and can pick up items at any time. I may need help loading heavy items into the truck, but she will come with me if she and I need to do the heavy lifting.
I can get bedding, towels, dishes, pots and pans, cleaning supplies, etc.
This is for a young homeless woman who showed up at our church yesterday. She's 23, and walked here through the Dérian Jungle, all the way through Central America and Mexico. It took her TWO MONTHS to walk here. She rode on TOP of a moving train for THREE DAYS. She arrived with the clothes on her back and needed a hand-up.
She has ZERO family.... anyone who knows me, KNOWS that I stepped directly into a mom role for her!
She is also looking for a JOB. She does not speak English, but is very adept at using Google Translate, and is willing to clean, cook, waitress, etc. If you know of any place in the immediate Pontiac area that is willing to hire someone who cannot speak English (yet!) Please let me know! She was admitted LEGALLY into the United States, and has her papers. She is currently working to get her Work Visa as well.
