Outstanding work!  

Wish is going GREEN!  

We had new energy efficient lights installed this week all over the warehouse. Wow is it bright in here! Now we need to paint LOL.     

If you would like to know more about the many ways we have gone green in the past year  Get details here!   Together we can help the planet while helping the homeless.    

 

More families to rehouse in the new fiscal year There are rumors of a big new program to rapidly rehouse a large number of homeless families starting in July. Bring them on. We have the goods.  Inventory is next Wed so we are closing. We will be closed that day and through the July 4th holiday. Thanks for all the wonderful donations lately.
