Hi everyone!
What a wonderful summer this has turned out to be. We are hoping you are all enjoying this beautiful weather God has blessed us with. Even though the weather is warm, there are so many families that are getting their utilities shut off. It is unreal. We do not have a waiting list at this point, but we are afraid that it is going to happen soon. Without you wonderful, generous people, Charitable Deeds would not be able to help these families the way we do. We want to thank all the members, churches, businesses and the public for all you do to help these needy families. We wish you could see the precious faces of the people we help, especially the children. What an amazing thing you all do. God bless you all!
Well, on to business...

A Additional Need in Our Community
A Local non-profit art/cultural organization would be grateful for the donation of old fashioned, heavy iron patio furniture for the patio of their concert hall, and front/side yard of their art gallery. All patterns, styles and sizes are sought - settees, chairs, tables, benches, umbrella stands, etc. The items must be in a style similar to the picture above.....no modern designs are needed.
A group of volunteers will do all the necessary refurbishing and restoration, including extensive sanding, re-painting and weather proofing. Minimal welding can also be done.
Your generosity would be greatly appreciated and the refurbished furniture will guarantee a welcome seat at the organization functions.
Please call 412-894-8749 or email [email protected]
