ARers-I Need a HUGE Favor: Please Vote for FURNITURE SHAREHOUSE-NOW!!
The timing couldn't be better to give the exposure to Furniture Sharehouse. They are one of 19 National Finalists in L'Oreal Women of Worth 2012 event receiving $10,000 so and another $25,000 possible if they get the most votes.
We all know the difference a home can make in someone's life. Furniture is a big part of what makes a house a home.
Regular readers know I've written about Furniture Sharehouse before. It's our local furniture bank, where basic, average unwanted furniture is collected, then re-distributed to clients of about 40 different agencies, FREE. Donors re-claim space in their home while getting a receipt for their taxes, and perfectly usuable furniture stays out of landfills.
Clients include individuals and families transitioning out of shelters, seniors and vets, foster kids who 'age-out' of the system, and fire/flood victims. To date, nearly 2500 Westchester County families in need have received FREE FURNITURE throughout the efforts of Furniture Sharehouse founder and Executive Director Kate Bialo.
Kate is now one of 10 National Finalists in L'Oreal Women of Worth 2012 event, which has already won her a $10,000. grant for Furniture Sharehouse. But now there is a bigger prize at stake, and she needs online votes. LOTS of them. Whichever candidate gets more votes between now and November 21st will win an additional $25,000. for their cause.
Here is the link. You can vote once a day, every day, between now and November 21st. PLEASE:
- Make it a favorite, and vote everyday
- Share it with family, friends, colleagues and FB pals
- Re-Blog here on AR (I am disabling comments, so it doesn't become a points thing)
The timing of this event is especially fortuitous, as many in our area are just starting to pick up the pieces from Hurricane Sandy; the need is certain to escalate in the weeks to come.
There are few that would get the worth of this more than Realtors, and there is NO more caring and supportive network than ARers, so pals-I'm counting on you. Thanks in advance, and stay tuned, I'll keep you posted
