Winner of the Guess How Much Is In The Jar from the HPCC Halloween Event
by Bob Staresinic 31 Oct '15

31 Oct '15

Thanks to all the kids who guessed how many quarters, bugs and pieces of candy were in the jar. We had 33 guesses. The person who came closest and is the winner of the jar of quarters, bugs and candy is KAIKI. Please email me at bob.63@netzero to claim your prize. For those who want to know, there were 89 quarters, 15 insects and 7 pieces of candy. I was so impressed with Snoopy (Joe Cool) that she guessed the exact number of both insects and candy, so she went home with a handful of bugs. Snoopy was not close on the quarters guess. Bob

by Nicole Waltenbaugh 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hi neighbors, I've always wanted to be able to do something to help benefit my favorite rescue and shelter for all of the endless hours of care and hard work that they put in. Well, my love for home roasting coffee can hopefully do just that! I've decided to donate $1 from each bag of coffee sold to either Guardian Angels Pug Rescue in Latrobe, PA or Orphans of the Storm (No Kill Animal Shelter) in Kittanning, PA. You'll select the rescue of your choice when purchasing through my Etsy Shop. Now accepting preorders (waiting on my packaging to arrive)! Orders will go out by the end of next week. www.etsy.com/shop/CurlyTailCoffee www.facebook.com/CurlyTailCoffee Thank you, Nicole Waltenbaugh

Poverty Simulation- November 17th
by Jodi Salant 30 Oct '15

30 Oct '15

Hello, On behalf of Circles East Liberty, I would like to invite you to a Poverty Simulation on November 17th. Circles is a nationally recognized, proven model to help get folks out of poverty. It is a relationally-driven program that benefits from the long-term relationships between "Circle Leaders" and “Circles Allies.” *Circles Allies* are community members who want to be in a supportive, intentional, befriending relationship with a* Circle Leader*, who is an individual or family working to get out of poverty. In 2014, East Liberty Development, Inc. started the first urban Circles group right in East Liberty. In January, we are launching our third cohort- and we need your help! It is difficult for those of us who have enough to truly understand the situations that families living in poverty experience every day – the decisions they have to make, and the fears and frustrations they feel. That is why we are inviting you to walk a mile in the shoes of those facing poverty by participating in the Community Action Poverty Simulation (CAPS). The CAPS provides participants with the opportunity to assume the role of a low-income family member living on a limited budget. The experience is divided into four 15-minute sessions, each of which represents one week in which you must provide for your family and maintain your home. As one participant commented, "This poverty simulation dramatically demonstrates how much time and energy many families have to give just to survive from day to day. It quickly dispels the myth "that people would do fine if they would only go out and get a job!" Every one of our Circle Leaders is employed and still struggling to get by. The simulation will be held from 6pm-8:30pm on November 17th, 2015 at Eastminster Presbyterian Church, 250 N. Highland Ave in East Liberty. Please RSVP by November 13th by contacting Jodi Salant, jodi.salant(a)eastliberty.org or 412-361-8061 ext.10. Please feel free to forward this to anyone you believe may be interested. We look forward to your participation. Sincerely, Jodi Salant -- Jodi Salant Administrative Assistant, Circles Greater Pittsburgh c/o East Liberty Development, Inc. 100 N. Sheridan Square, 4th Floor Pittsburgh, PA 15206 P: 412-361-8061 ext.10 F: 412-362-3231 www.eastliberty.org facebook.com/EastLibertyPgh twitter.com/EastLibertyPgh <http://twitter.com/EastLibertyPgh>
