Wish List
- Reel lawnmowers – young people (14 – 17) willing to mow but State Law does not allow minors to operate lawnmowers. Wishing for 5 – a team of 5 teens can change a yard quickly! 785-5340, ext. 33
- Microwaves, toaster ovens, small refrigerator, cots – near homeless (usually means adults who have moved back in to family home and conditions very crowded…..often change from relative to relative daily) are helping Salem Housing keep a vacant house safe from vandalism and preparing it for new residents by prep and paint a room at a time. Heat and water on but since they are "living in" on a temporary basis and moving with from house to house, we often need additional "home" equipment.

- Rototiller (or person who would till lots this spring)…willing to accept a set number of lots from many persons and Flint Urban Gardening and Salem Housing will schedule and organize this to use your time well. 785-5340, ext. 33 or 27
- Friend with a chainsaw – trim trees, cut up dead trees. 785-5340, ext. 33
