Want to make a BIG difference in the life of a family moving into an apartment? Join our move team! Our move team is made up of people who are willing to help us move furniture and apartment essentials into apartments. We need heavy lifters! We typically move on Saturday mornings but also call for help in a pinch. By putting your name on our list, you are agreeing to receive asks for help and you can pick and choose when you are free! To sign up, email Jenn our Community Coordinator at outreach@fpwny.org
Help our families in shelter from the comfort of your own home by adding a personal touch to our family rooms with cozy, hand-made fleece-tied blankets! Make them in fun kids patterns to fit our twin beds (50 x 75 inches) or in more understated patterns for our parents (60 x 80 inches). (Please no smaller sizes, the bigger the better!). If you would like to donate, contact Jenn our Community Coordinator at: outreach@fpwny.org
