Green Drop Update
  

Subject: Update on Green Drop Pickup

Dear Community Members,

Thank you to all the units that participated in the Green Drop pick up effort this morning. Unfortunately, Green Drop did not arrive as scheduled. With the help of another resident, I was able to transport all donations to Philly AIDS Thrift at 710 S 5th Street. They graciously accepted most of the items, and their team was a tremendous help with unloading.

For those interested in future donations, I’ve attached Philly AIDS Thrift’s flyer to this email. They are a small organization and currently do not offer pickups, but they would truly appreciate any additional community support. For more information about Philly AIDS Thrift you can go to https://www.phillyaidsthrift.com/about/ 

Looking ahead, I’m planning to organize a weekend Goodwill pick up in the Spring. 

 
Best Regards, 
Michele Giannakopoulos
