Dear PoP – List Some DC Schools/Groups that Need Supplies


Photo by PoPville flickr user Mr. T in DC, The Eaton school doesn’t necessarily need supplies, I just liked the photo.

“Dear PoP,

Its the time of the year when Schools in Fairfax and other surrounding counties are cleaning out their classrooms. I watch year after year as art teachers throw at useful supplies. I was wondering if we can generate a list of places they can donate to? Or if you have any ideas of places that would appreciate receiving these thrown out supplies so I can pass it on to teachers. Particularly places that are willing to come pick it up so the teachers don’t have to work around their busy schedules to drop it off. Also non profits that have pug mills so that dried out clay doesn’t end up in our landfills and can become someones art work.”

Just list some groups/schools, with addresses if possible, in the comments and the reader will arrange dropping off the supplies.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
