A desk.\u00a0 Actually there are two, but they are NOT just desks.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Yesterday, a Board member spotted these second-hand desks for sale and emailed another Board member.\u00a0 They consulted others and decided they\u2019d fill a need for space for Literacy program materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But…the desks were in Naples…and we are not. \u00a0<\/span>And they must be delivered after 5, the same day. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Texts were sent to see who could be there.\u00a0 A staff member can!\u00a0 But they\u2019re heavy and there\u2019s no one to help the driver deliver them. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Calls went out to our fabulous (& fit!) neighbors at Hyte CrossFit who help us so much with our Friends, Fun & Fitness program – they aren\u2019t there at that time.\u00a0 But wait!\u00a0 A different Board member can bring her husband and kids!\u00a0 AND meanwhile, one of us reached out to our GiGi\u2019s neighbors at Refuge<\/a> Church.\u00a0 They happened to have a group of high school kids who\u2019d love to help! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>So, in the space of 3-4 hours we had found desks and had them delivered, assembled and even CLEANED! \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

None of it would have been possible without the dedication of our GiGi\u2019s Team and our growing community of GiGi’s believers around us.\u00a0 Thank you to everyone that came to save the day- TOGETHER!<\/span><\/p>\n
