Additional Transition House Needs

Many many thanks to everyone who donated to and helped with setting up the Sherman Oaks Refugee Transition House! We have most of the basic furniture and kitchen supplies moved in, and the house looks great! If you have not had a chance to see it and would like to visit, please contact Andrea (andrealee@newlifesanjose.org) to schedule a visit.

Many have asked about remaining needs for the house. Following is a list of one-time and ongoing items the house needs:

Kitchen utensils - spatulas, serving spoons, etc.
Chairs - kitchen style
Patio furniture - chairs and table
Twin-size sheet sets - new or very clean
Regular size pillows - new please
Sleeping bags - good condition only
DVD Player
Dictionaries
Easy reading books
Bookshelf - not too tall
Pantry staples - beans, canned goods, pasta, rice, etc. (ongoing need)
Cleaning supplies - windex, laundry soap (HE only), bleach, mop, furniture polish, hardwood floor cleaner (ongoing need)
Vacuum
San Jose Trash Tickets (available at Safeway) - for heavy trash weeks when the house has a lot of residents (ongoing need)

Please call the church office or send a note to Andrea at refugee@newlifesanjose.org if you can fill any of these needs. Pickup is available.
