Update (May)

Hello everyone,
I am so sorry for the delay in this post, we are still here and still working.
There have been quite a few changes and more to come...

First off, Jenn from South Jersey needs to "retire". The work that we do is very time consuming and she needs to spend time with her children. Understandably, we are upset to see her go, but we know how hard it is. Thank you for all you have done Jenn, we will miss you!
She will be doing her last delivery today!

Kyle, is still working in North Jersey and we will be getting updates from her :)

As for Central Jersey...Seegal, Carol & Robin are still here. :)
We are getting a TON of furniture needs and donations. Unfortunately, we have no one to deliver such huge items. My husband, who has done it till now is in busy season of work, he holds 2 jobs and is no longer available to be the "shlepper" as we fondly called him.
And so, with sadness, I must announce that we will not be picking up, or delivering furniture anymore. From now on, we will only be dealing with food, clothing, toys, and any items that fit into cars.

As summer approaches, we will be slowing down quite a bit. With children home from school, it is hard for us all to do this work. Anyone that comes to us with needs will not be turned away if we have the items needed.
We also need to rest before the busy fall season comes. Christmas is always the neediest time of year. We already have tons of new items for adults and children stored, and will be asking for more as the season approaches.

Please do check in with us, we will still be around, just busy with children and life! :)
This would be a good time to announce that we (Seegal and Rich) are welcoming another child into our family. We have started the adoption of a special needs precious orphan in Eastern Europe. We will need to travel there to pick him up. We are very excited for us and for him, as his future is quite bleak where he is.

Thank you all for being a part of One Small Wish. We are not going away, just slowing it down a little. :)

God bless!!!!
