What's New With Alive!

Move Furniture, Change Lives!

UPDATE!

Thanks to Bob and Susie Scherr and Jack Chesley, accompanied by Agudas Achim congregational rep Joan Hartman Moore, for the mitzvah they performed this past Sunday afternoon moving furniture for ALIVE!. AAC teamed with members of the Alexandria Baha’i Community and several community volunteers to pick up a table, chairs, beds, couches, a dresser and various furniture accessories from willing donors and deliver them to delighted recipients.

This young boy immediately bounced onto the comfy sofa as soon as ALIVE! volunteers set it down in his family’s apartment. His smile said it all.
