[Highland Park] Shoes, Books, Art Supplies, Games, Sporting Equip, and Education Resources Needed for Kenya!
by Marisa Muscarella 31 Oct '11

31 Oct '11

Hello Neighbors, My church, an inner city church on the North Shore, Allgheny Center Alliance Church (www.acac.net) is collecting tons of shoes, adult/children's books: "wholesome fiction", classics, Children's books of all kinds, Nonfiction: leadership, theology, general spiritual topics, commentaries, self help, reference, writing handbooks, history, biographies, bibles and children's bibles (Please No: textbooks, dictionaries, encyclopedias, comic books, diet books, books older than 14 years, magazine, books with magic themes like Harry Potter or DIsney), journals to write in, fun and educational games, jump ropes, sporting equip such as soccer balls, art supplies like crayons, pens, pencils, paintbrushes, paper, and lined or plain writing paper. (shoes can be for children, women and men..... All of this will be shipped to Kenya for distribution when our missionary team arrives after the holidays. The collection will take place through the month of November. We so appreciate anything you can donate--one may wonder why pay shipping costs and not just purchase all of the above once in Africa w with donated money? Kenya is so very poor there is nowhere to purchase any of this. Shoes are probably THE most practical item but anything you have is again so very appreciated. I will designate one pick up day to your home, sometime at the end of the Kenya drive (late November, early December) based on your responses. Thank you deeply for anything you are considering or can do. Peace and blessings, Marisa We must eat. If, in the face of that dread fact, we can find other nourishment, and tolerance and compassion for it, we'll be no less full of human dignity. M.F.K. Fisher

This was in today's news: Highland Park drilling to affect Route 8 traffic Geotechnical research and drilling on Route 8 near the Pittsburgh Zoo will intermittently close lanes in both directions on weekdays, starting today and continuing through early December, PennDOT said. The closures will happen from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. The work is preparation for replacing the bridge that carries Route 8 over Heth's Run.
