Need strong backs and a van: moving Lily to safer housing

A short, concrete way to help: a few hours of lifting and loading in Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs
After mold in the old building became a health issue for my child, I found a safe, affordable apartment in Colorado Springs, and the lease starts on Monday. I have a teenager and a toddler, a few pieces of furniture and no money for movers. I'm hoping for 3-4 helpers for about four hours. If you have a van or pickup, that would help enormously - I'll cover fuel. The old place is on the second floor and the new place has just one flight of stairs. We'll do it in two trips. Lunch and cold drinks are on me. I know this is a lot to ask of strangers. I'd be happy to share references from my landlord and my employer. Thank you for reading my story.

            So sorry you're going through this, Lily. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
