Bedding needed for migrant families
Holy Trinity continues to partner with local organizations aiding migrant families. There’s currently a shortage of bedding for migrants moving from shelters into apartments.

OTHER WAYS YOU CAN HELP RIGHT NOW
Furniture for Migrants: Volunteer Help Needed
As DC family shelters reach capacity and migrants have been forced to take shelter wherever they can with no resources, the Migrant Mutual Aid Network has received double the number of migrant requests for furniture. Volunteers are needed to track down furniture on NextDoor, Craigslist, Facebook marketplace, etc., match them to requests, and schedule deliveries. Other people are needed to drive or help load and unload the furniture. If you’re interested in volunteering, please contact the church office. (Donations of bedding and household supplies are also needed.)
Lutheran Disaster Response: Hawaii Wildfires
Exacerbated by strong winds, wildfires on Maui have claimed over 90 lives and have destroyed homes, businesses, and lines of communication. The Big Island of Hawaii has also been impacted by wildfires, and more islands remain vulnerable to additional fires this season. Lutheran Disaster Response is coordinating with the Pacifica Synod and other partners to assess the needs of people impacted by the wildfires. Please consider a gift to support efforts to meet immediate needs and long-term recovery amid the widespread destruction.

Migrant Supply Drive
We’re continuing to work with Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network to collect supplies for migrant families who have been denied housing and need immediate aide. They are now preparing for cold + flu season and need BULK travel size tissue packs, multipacks of cold and flu medicine, Tylenol INDIVIDUALLY wrapped pills, children's Tylenol multipacks, and vitamin C drink packets. You can drop these off at the church. You can also still continue to donate online by shopping the Amazon link and having the donated items sent to Holy Trinity. Thank you!
