Consider Donating to LIFEBRIDGE








Trustee Nate Gravel attended a Salem Chamber of Commerce event recently and met a few people who work for the Lifebridge Thrift Shop on Canal Street.  The thrift shop takes donations of household items, furniture, and clothing from the public and sells the donated items. 
The proceeds go to programs, food, and shelter for Salem’s homeless.

He wanted to get the word out about Lifebridge through the blog.  Nate says "I see a lot of quality items end up in the dumpster as people move in and out of the building, and I think that these items could and should ultimately donated."  Would you be willing to help spread the word?  Condo residents could contact Nate to coordinate donations. You can reach Nate through Markwood Management at 781-639-4080.

To learn more about Lifebridge’s operation, please take a look at their website: www.lifebridgesalem.org

Any assistance you could provide would be much appreciated.
