Grandma's Closet
And, just like that, summer is here! We have been very busy
helping our neighbors better host their kiddies. It should come
as no surprise that some of the items in Grandma's Closet are
and have been very popular. We suggest lining up reservations
as soon as you have your guests' itineraries. You don't want to be
caught short-handed, especially when those precious little ones
are concerned. If anyone needs some items for the baby or little
kids to better accommodate them, Grandma's Closet may have
just the ticket!
We keep a list of people who have items to loan, their contact
information, as well as with the items they wish to share. When
someone inquires about borrowing items, we'll supply the list,
and the donor and recipient can work out the details.
We offer these loans to be used by our residents for our visiting
grandchildren. e borrowed items are not to be taken out of the
village and used elsewhere or by anyone other than the borrower.
If you have items you wish to loan out (strollers, car seats,
carriers, Pack'n'Plays, high chairs, books, toys, games, puzzles,
etc.), send an email to Naomi (NaomiBKatz@iCloud.com) and/
or Rich (redcisc@gmail.com), enumerating those items and age-
appropriateness, along with your name, address, phone numbers
and email address. at information will be added to the list.
If you find yourself in need of an item or two, please let Rich
or me know, and we will forward the list to you. If your visiting
grandchildren have le behind items, you won't be needing for a
while, consider offering them for loan at Grandma's Closet.
If you have any items of clothing or furniture for babies or
children which you can't store or use, please let us know. We will
gladly pick up the items and bring them to Father Joe's Village,
which is always in desperate need.
ank you so much for your attention and anticipated
assistance. Your continued generosity and support are truly
appreciated. Written by Naomi B Katz and Rich Halkyard
