Topic: Where to donate a mattress??
Feel terrible throwing away a very decent queen mattress that is 15 years old, pillow top, slight indentations from our bodies, and no stains. Anyone know of a place like a women’s shelter or another organization I could take this to? Not a huge fan of soliciting those in tent city directly. Seems like SOMEONE could use this great mattress and keep it out of the landfill!
I have 175 extra ceramic wall tiles (4-3/8 x 4-3/8) for someone that needs them. This would cover about 23 square feet of wall. They are off-white and the color on the 2 boxes says almond. There is also 7 bullnose 4×4 included. Reply to this forum and I will be notified of your interest.

Topic: Found: Two different shoes
Found along Admiral Way SW in the 5100 block. Earlier in the week I found a black Nike flip-flop (looks new and expensive) and Friday I found a green child’s slip on, looks like it has a frog face or dragon face with googly eyes. Both look nearly new and are hanging on the power pole at the corner of Admiral Way SW and 51st Ave SW. Your kid misses their shoe. Come back and get it.

The Planters “Nutmobile” has been travelling across the country since the Great Depression to lift spirits, bring smiles, and provide a bit of joy and appreciation for all the great contributions people share with their communities from small towns and large cities alike.
SEATTLE, Wash.- Sound Generations constantly strives to expand services to underserved and marginalized communities. Believing that everyone deserves access, affirms their deep commitment to helping all people, especially low-income and people of color, obtain the services they need while feeling included and respected in a community that affirms aging.
The pandemic has presented disruption to some of its programs and services, but with volunteer support, Sound Generations not only continues, but expands its reach to bring vital services to adults on the aging spectrum through food security, transportation, health and wellness, and assistance services programs.
Sound Generations’ Meals on Wheels (MOW) Program has felt an uptick in meal delivery. Specifically, the West Seattle MOW site currently has 76 active clients and 21 volunteers. They have been averaging around 2307 meals being delivered by volunteers per month (March – Sept.). This represents a 17% increase month over month as compared to 2019. Additionally, this site has taken on 26 new participants since the onset of the pandemic in March. The volunteers have taken on the increased demand for service in stride.
While volunteer support overall is down across the organization, Sound Generations’ MOW program volunteers old and new have been stepping up and showing up to meet the increase demand. Their volunteer’s commitment has never been stronger in meeting the clients’ needs in the face of the ever-evolving coronavirus findings. Simultaneously, they have taken proactive measures to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus amongst themselves and the high-risk population Sound Generations serves. These efforts are to be commended and Planters agrees.
The Planters “Nutmobile” has led them to celebrate this MOW site’s volunteer accomplishments in the face of challenging circumstances. The “Nutmobile has been featured in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and lent its brand to numerous celebrated events from New York’s Time Square to Great Britain. They will be on site at the West Seattle Senior Center located at 4217 SW Oregon St., Seattle, WA 98116 on Wednesday, October 28 from 8:30 AM to11:00 AM. Join Sound Generations as they celebrate the service of volunteers and their commitment to ensure Sound Generations’ programs can continue bringing vital services to older adults at various stages on the aging spectrum.
If you would like more information about this event, please call MOW at 206.448.5767, or email mealsonwheels@soundgenerations.org

I am making a series of “Respect” quilts inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement and Election 2020, and need more Levi’s and flannel shirts (cotton or wool). The more worn-out, the better as long as pockets are intact. Will pay $5 per shirt or pair of pants and will pick-up in person (or pay shipping if outside Seattle).
Show your support for the BLM movement: order your “Respect” quilt now! Only $500 until Nov. 3. check them out!
Thank you,

Honey Girl B & G, “We specialize in cozy”Hello neighbors,
Between 11:30 pm and 6 am between October 25th and October 26th, the U-Haul my father in law parked in front of our home was broken into. Stolen was a large box that contained family photos and paintings, cameras, home videos/recordings on discs and tape cassettes, and batteries.
We understand that the electronics are going to be pawned off, but what we are really trying to recover are the pictures, paintings, and video recordings. So if you see a box that is 3×5, painting frame boxes, or what visibly can be described as discarded family photos, please contact us.
We have filed a report with the Seattle PD, but if someone should see something, it would be greatly appreciated.
