Two of my friends(who wish to remain anonymous) are in need of assistance. I have seen Olyblogers in the past help out people who are in need and I was hoping this could happen again. This Mother and daughter duo need security deposit and moving expense money of 900 dollars.

Both of these women are amazing, kind and inspiring people, who are constantly helping others. They have been living in a trailer for almost a year now and finally found an apartment they could afford, however the move in costs are more then they can handle by themselves. I hope olyblog can help. It would mean the world to these women. Their trailer is small and has many problems, the biggest problem is their trailer cannot stay warm and winter is coming soon. If this community can help out even a little this would be greatly appreciated.

Capitol Clubhouse located at 618 7th Ave SE Olympia Wa 98501 is accepting donations on the behalf of these women. If you are able to help drop off donations with Jeff Aldrich at The Capitol Clubhouse. Thank you.

I am sure there is a good reason for the anonymity. I know Kenna and I can attest to her trustworthiness.

There's a fund for this

There's a fund in Olympia that is exclusively set up to help new apartment renters with their first/last month's rent, moving expenses and stuff like that. I honestly don't remember the name right now, but if you call the First United Methodist Church or someone from Interfaith Works, I know that they'll be able to point you to the right person.
