Reminder - FOCUS Pittsburgh Food, Hygene & supplies Drive Pick-up around the neighborhood this Wednesday, 23 MAY 18, at 9:00 AM
by Michael Nadler 21 May '18

21 May '18

Reminder - Hi neighbors, just a quick reminder that we will be driving the neighborhood picking up for the monthly FOCUS Collection this Wednesday, 23 MAY 18. We will be around the neighborhood at 9:00 AM Wednesday morning, so if you have non-perishable food items, or items listed below to donate, as We are running our 3rd pick-up from the neighborhood for Supplies for FOCUS !!! We have attached a letter in regards to what they need, but most importantly it is FOOD at this time. Last month we took our Van Loaded, and it was so needed and so much appreciated. We have had a good response already for this week, but again food seems to be most important !!!! Mike and Brigette Nadler, are coordinating the Highland Park pick up. If you are inclined to help, leave the supplies on your front porch and we will pick up and get your donations to FOCUS. So we are doing this again this Wednesday, 23 MAY 18. We will be around starting at 9:00 AM, and need to get the donations there by noon. Please DO NOT drop off here, as we do not have a way of storing donations. Just email us your actual address to: mike(a)divehards.com<mailto:mike@divehards.com>, to let us know what to expect to pick up (as well as what not to take off your porches !!!). MAKE SURE that there is a Phone Number so that they can reach you during collection times, should there be any questions. FOCUS Pittsburgh, located in the Hill District, is part of a national movement through the Orthodox Church, that helps to fight poverty in communities across America. One of their areas in need is keeping their food pantry stocked with food and supplies. Currently, their shelves are empty and they need help. The above attachment highlights what they need. It could change on a monthly basis, at which point that need will be communicated. FOCUS Pittsburgh has been in the Hill since 2011. Each week, hundreds of backpacks are distributed to children in the Hill and Southside Public Schools. They offer an 8-week professional development class that teaches non-technical job skills to promote employment and success in the workplace. Bag lunches are distributed every Saturday through the Churches....140 lunches to be exact. In 2014, they opened a free medical and behavioral health clinic for people who are uninsured or who don't qualify for medical assistance. Most recently, they have purchased an RV, trained dozen of volunteers, and have formed a trauma response team -- responding to homicides in Allegheny County by providing on-site psychological and mental health care to residents affected by violence. In advance, thank you for your consideration.

Lost dog -Max- back home!
by Saenz Robles, Maria T 20 May '18

20 May '18

Thanks so much for the many people who looked for Max and gave us tips, advice and encouragement! He was just brought back home by a wonderful neighbor. Apparently Max fell into a recessed garage rooftop in an alley way behind our own street, and couldn't get out of there on his own. It seems to have happened to other dogs before. He is now safe and sleeping away in my daughter's bed. Thanks again, Mayte Sáenz
