"Here's what I do here.
I was allowed to run a second hand store here since June.
It's a funky little place that sells used furniture, kitchen ware, a
little of this and that but the main purpose of the store is to help
this community which is a very poor community with little to no work.
Out of the store we help families that need things like food, clothes,
help them find work. In October we gave away 500 pounds of produce
from the store that fifteen of us picked and dug on an 8000 ranch
outside of Goldendale. It was gone in three hours. Before school
started, we gave 21 kids clothes that would not have had any to wear.
We've helped with beds for kids, paid partial rent for two families that
had fires and nowhere to go. No one gets paid at the store as we are
all volunteers. Right now we are having a canned food drive, collecting
food for families. It's great that some can get a food basket for a
dinner at Christmas but what the hell do they eat the next day and the
next? We are trying to make sure no one goes hungry all year long.
Here's our simple web site that has not been up-dated for awhile cause
yours truly has been too busy to do it.

If you have anything you would like to donate to the store, we'd gladly
take it. Things we always need:
Small, clean couches and dressers. Microwaves, kids bicycles, small book
shelves. good pots and pans, any kind of tools.”
