<div> </div>
<div>As always, we want to give our newest Americans a warm welcome. But, with so many refugees arriving over the past two months, we are having difficulty finding apartments and beds.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We need <b>two 2-BR apartments</b> in or near the East Rock area or in West Haven. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>And we need <b>seven beds</b>; that’s single (twin size) beds. We need the mattresses, the box springs, and the bed frames.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We have just about all of the other necessary furniture, thanks to Helping Hands, the great used furniture store on State Street.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If you know about a 2BR apartment that is available and affordable --- PLEASE let me know.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And if you are aware of any extra beds -- PLEASE let me know.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You can call me on my cell any time: <a class="vt-p" target="_blank">860 805 7805</a></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks</div>
