Beautifully finished round cherry table/tabletop
by Joy 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

We can't find a place for this lovely table in our house. It was in our breakfast nook (seats 2-3), then it was a cocktail table (with short hairpin legs), and it most recently served as a side table on our covered front porch. Polished, finely finished, thick cherry hardwood, 36in d Current hairpin legs make it 25 1/4in high. Legs could be swapped for a pedestal or shorter or taller legs of any kind. Excellent condition, the wood is very beautiful. Made locally by a fine cabinetmaker. $100.

Seeking Pre-K tutor for my 4 1/2 year old
by Nicholas Delphia 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

Dear Neighbors, We are a family of two working parents, a 7-year-old (starting virtual 2nd grade at PPS Dilworth next week), and a 4-1/2 year old. As we enter the fall semester, we are seeking someone to tutor our younger child, who will not be participating in a formal Pre-K program due to the Coronavirus. We would like to find someone to come 3-5 weekday mornings per week, for 1-2 hours a day (likely starting at 9 AM). Our hope is to find someone with the ability to design and implement age-appropriate educational activities that align with PPS' kindergarten readiness indicators. No license or credential required, but someone with an early childhood education background of some type would be ideal. Your health and safety, along with ours, is important to us. We would like for the interaction to take place outdoors (either our backyard or covered front porch), with masks/social distancing in place. If you or someone you know would possibly be a fit, please be in touch so that we can continue the conversation. Serious inquiries only, please.

Fwd: Census 2020: Be Counted Before It's Too Late
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 29 Aug '20

29 Aug '20

The Census deadline has been moved up to September 30, 2020 *THE CENSUS DEADLINE IS NOW SEPTEMBER 30, 2020* For every person in the City of Pittsburgh and Allegheny County that is not counted, we lose about $2,000 a year in federal funding for critical services like transportation, schools, hospitals, roads and other community improvements. The recent announcement by the federal government that the census deadline has been moved up by one month means we must get our neighbors to complete Census 2020 by September 30, 2020. Click Here to Complete Your Census <https://pittsburghpa.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e562dca418a41a4ab246…> County Executive Rich Fitzgerald and Mayor William Peduto issued information for how our communities can be impacted if our undercounted communities are not counted and what we can do to help. Read the full release here <https://pittsburghpa.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e562dca418a41a4ab246…> . "There is no time to waste — it's time for all residents around the greater Pittsburgh area to make sure they are being counted, and receiving the full federal resources we’re due." - Mayor William Peduto *CENSUS WEEK OF ACTION* Join the Complete Count Committee starting today, August 18, in the Census Week of Action: <https://pittsburghpa.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e562dca418a41a4ab246…> *TUESDAY: SOCIAL MEDIA DAY OF ACTION* *Frame the Conversation Online *by sharing why you were counted – or why it’s important to be counted – before the 2020 Census ends on your social media. - Use #BeCounted #B4Its2Late to highlight your participation - Put a frame on your Facebook media profile pic to let your friends know you've been counted. You can find the frame on the Allegheny County Facebook page <https://pittsburghpa.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e562dca418a41a4ab246…> OR click on your profile pic > update profile picture > add frame > search "Pittsburgh Census" and choose one of the two frames available. *WEDNESDAY: FRIENDS & FAMILY DAY OF ACTION* Get in touch with your friends and family to ask if they've completed the census by: - Call, text or email at least 10 people - Share information on how they can participate if they haven't already ( my2020census.gov or call 1-844-330-2020) *THURSDAY: #BECOUNTED VIDEO PREMIERE* Tune in with Allegheny County at 2:00 PM to catch the Complete Count Committee's debut of its 2020 Census Video at https://www.facebook.com/AlleghenyCounty <https://pittsburghpa.us1.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e562dca418a41a4ab246…> Be sure to share the video with your social networks or on your neighborhood's Facebook page! *FRIDAY: TEXT OUT THE COUNT* The Complete County Committee and its partners will be sending a text to tens of thousands of people in hard to count communities - those communities with lower self-reporting rates. It's particularly urgent for these residents as census data is used to provide needed services, representation and community revitalization efforts. *SATURDAY & SUNDAY: CENSUS SABBATH* Calling all worshippers and communities of faith! Share information about the Census and its September 30 deadline with your communities this weekend. Each and every one of us is part of “We the People” and we refuse to be excluded. “There are so many reasons to be counted in the 2020 Census. It’s important for your community, your education, your health, your commute, your neighbors and your family – to name just a few. Particularly now, it’s imperative that you let the federal government know you’re here. Be Counted." - County Executive Rich Fitzgerald There are only 44 days left until the end of the census. Help us get our neighborhoods counted. The self-response rate of Allegheny County residents is 69%, which is higher than the state’s rate of 66.6% and the federal rate of 63.6%. Even though the self-response rates are nearing the 71.3% level that was reached in the 2010 census, leaders still want to exceed that number and remain concerned with ensuring that hard to count communities are included in the count.
