by Michael Nadler 19 Mar '24

Dear Neighbors, It has been a couple of months since our last collection, as we picked up the much needed items from many of our neighbors, and delivered them to NRP, where they were gratefully appreciated !!! We are again letting our neighborhood know that we, Mike and Brigette Nadler, will be driving the neighborhood picking up for the monthly NRP (Formally FOCUS) Collection this coming Wednesday, 24 MAY 23. We will be around the neighborhood starting at 9:00 AM that morning, and we are actually passing along their request for specific items below, in addition to the regular non-perishable food to restock their pantry, as their stock is very low, as well as useable Clothing that is clean and sorted. [https://mcusercontent.com/4fc5bdf344d7e0fec13e7efe2/images/14efa958-071a-36…] "Trauma teddies are essential to our trauma response efforts. Firstly, giving children a comfort item such as a teddy bear is a great way to make them feel safe enough to open up and engage with us. Trauma teddies also help us to reach parents and adults who otherwise may be reluctant to open up about their experience. Seeing a child smiling and playing with a trauma teddy given by our team makes them more likely to trust us and engage in conversation or accept a referral for further support." - Dan Emerick, Trauma Response Team Program Manager Please consider donating any of the following: * New or gently used teddy bears (small to medium sized) * Cases of smaller water bottles * Juice Boxes (apple or orange) * Capri Sun or other coolaid pouches * Keurig K-Cups * Ground coffee * Coffee filters * Easy Mac - single serving packs of mac & cheese * Ramen noodles (beef, chicken, shrimp) Canned soup (ideally pop-top - but can be can-opener style) 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 !!!), and we will get back to you. PLEASE MAKE SURE that there is a Phone Number, so that we can reach you during collection times, should there be any questions.

Girl Scout Christmas Tree Recycling Fundraiser Sign Up Links
by Girl Scout Troop 52498 07 Jan '24

07 Jan '24

Hi, Neighbors! This is the email to announce sign up for the Girl Scout Christmas Tree pick up for recycling. We started this program with our girls 9 or 10 years ago and so excited to continue this effort to keep Christmas trees out of our landfills. Note that our troop has added an additional day for the Highland Park, East Liberty, Garfield and Larimer pick ups this year, so if you are holding on to that tree a little longer, you have an extra week available for pick up. Please just note on the form if your tree will not be available for the January 7 pick up, so we make sure to place you on the January 13 list. Go here to sign up: https://forms.gle/MhqnEhM3e222eAdR9 <https://www.google.com/url?q=https://forms.gle/MhqnEhM3e222eAdR9&sa=D&sourc…> This year Girl Scouts are covering: Highland Park, East Liberty, Shadyside, Point Breeze, Friendship, Larimer, Squirrel Hill, Greenfield, Morningside, and Stanton Heights. We will deliver your tree to the city’s tree recycling locations. Two BSA troops will be picking up in Lawrenceville and Bloomfield and delivering the trees to Garfield to feed the goats. Here is a link to a flyer with links to the sign ups for the other areas: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vROpmr7aAaNJzz1KBBdlRkPkW39coN_… Last year, the city recycled over 1600 trees, and Scouts did over 300 of those! We are hoping to expand those numbers further this year. And, as always, the important thing is that you keep that tree out of the landfill. If you'd rather just drop the tree yourself, the city has made a super helpful map with all of the drop off locations: https://pittsburghpa.gov/dpw/xmas-tree-recycling. Please spread the word! We want to continue to thank the community for the warm support it offers. Through your donations, we are able to give the girls the opportunity to travel (our troop went camping near Ithaca this year for a bigger trip), and it allows us to give back to the community beyond these tree pick ups. In the past, we have used a portion of the donations to help efforts at Hello Neighbor, purchase books for Jeremiah's Place, sending holiday boxes to military troops stationed abroad, to name just a few. We have not yet decided what our additional give-back focus will be this year, but we'll be sure to let you know. Wishing you all a wonderful New Year's! Heather and Melissa gstroop52498(a)gmail.com
