[Summit] furniture donations

Thu Feb 23 18:35:49 UTC 2012

When my mother-in-law moved, my husband's family called a nearby Air-Force base. They came and took a lot of her furniture. Apparently they have a building on the base where newly arrived military families can go to choose items to furnish their apartments/homes. Often these families don't have much money, and they move a lot. So this is a big help to them, and it's probably a tax deduction for the donor.
