I know a family in dire straights.... they need anything and everything. I am trying to contact everyone I know to help gather things for them. Like dishes, glasses, pots & pans, vaccuum, furniture, washer & dryer, mattresses/beds, etc. I can even help in purchasing a couple of things if cheap enough. Please let me know if you or anyone you know is getting rid of, or selling anything. Also, the father has been in construction his whole life and can do excellent brick and stone work at affordable rates. Thank you in advance!

I have lots of children's things - do they have children or need kids' stuff? I may have a few smaller pieces like lamps, etc. I know I have a stroller and lots of kids' clothes and toys. Let me know if you are interested.

Hi A.,

I have a vacuum. I can look to see if I have other extras lying around.

Where can I drop items off?

Can you give me the name/number of the husband who does stonework/brickwork? We may be needing some done in the future. Also, can you find out if he installs attic ladders or possibly a door leading from our guest room closet into the attic as the model home has this. Does the family need clothes? If so, which sizes? I am cleaning out my closet. Also, I have canned food to contribute if needed. Our pantry is WAY overstocked at the moment.

We have some things to get rid of...however nothing is in that great of shape...it's not new. Is that ok? I have some queen size bedding, some mismatched towels, some decorative items we have a sofa, but I'm not totally sure if my husband will let it go, but I will certainly check with him. How soon do you need this stuff? Please contact me so we can talk and make arrangements.

Hi A.! I was reading your post on Mamasource and it really touched me. My husband and I live near the Little Elm Frisco border and we have a couple of couches that are in okay shape. They look nice on the outside, but when you sit down, you sink down pretty low! The springs are just worn out, but could probably be fixed pretty easily. We used them up until about a year ago, so if they can have them if they want? They are dark blue and there is a full size couch (no bed) and a love seat with 4 pillows to match. I can take a pic this evening if you want. We also have a box full of pots and pans they can have. Also, my husband and I have talked about getting our mailbox bricked... We just built our house a couple of years ago, so we already have the bricks, how much would he charge to do that? I hope this helps :) You can call or email me if you want. ____@____.com / ###-###-####

Thanks!

I hate to hear that this family is having such a rough time and I would like to help. How did they get into this situation? Are there children involved? If so, what are the ages? I have some things around the house that I may be willing to donate. Just give me more specifics about the family and what their needs are.

Just curios what happened to your friends. I've donated allot of our stuff to the hurcaine families. We will be moving to McKinney in April so I may have some more stuff to get rid of or sell for cheap. We were thinking of maybe doing a rock or stone border around our new house flower beds. If the man is interested give us a number were we can get intouch.
Thanks

I have an old vaccuum cleaner that could probably be induced to work better by someone handy. Also have some old furniture - have to check with my husband on that one. Also, don't have a truck and we are in Richardson...
