Looking for apartment

My name is Kristen, and I'm currently living in Bellefonte in a 1 bedroom apartment. I'm looking to move to State College to be closer to my job and looking for a 2 bedroom apartment to share with a roommate in order to make this move affordable. I graduated from Penn State in 2007 and am currently working as a paraprofessional (similar to a teacher's aide) for the State College Area School District. I have two cats who are both friendly and independent. I have attended various churches in the area in the past and am looking to get more involved with a church again. I feel that I'm a pretty easygoing and neat person. I'd prefer another working young adult roommate who's also pretty easygoing. My email is kbrown411@gmail.com if you want to contact me to set up a time to meet.

Thanks,

Kristen

Apartment for Rent

Hesser Rentals (814-571-0067) has an unexpected vacancy at 118 E. Curtin St. Apt 2.--a terrific upstairs apartment on a quiet street of beautiful old homes in Bellefonte. The ad should be in the current newspaper. The apartment takes up all of the second floor (so it seems a little more like a house than a randomly carved-up apartment) and has a huge living room, hardwood floors throughout, two bedrooms, one bathroom, a dining room, a kitchen with lots of cupboards, and a screened-in porch. There's a washer and a drier in the basement (shared with the first floor tenants). The rent will probably be around $700 (I'm not sure). You would pay for electric, heat, and cable. The landlady pays for water, sewage, and garbage. There's one parking spot in the alley and plentiful free parking on both sides of the street. There is also a CATA bus stop about two blocks away.

My wife and I live in the downstairs apartment. Between us, we've rented from six different rental companies since coming to Penn State, and our current landlady has been our best by far--reasonable, conscientous, gets things fixed right away."

We Need Donations!

As some of you may know, some ThirdPlacers will be coming to inner-city Philadelphia this weekend (November 19-21) to participate in 2 service projects. This is the first of hopefully many more service opportunities in Philly as ThirdPlace looks to build relationships with organizations there that could use more regular help.


This weekend we will be serving at a ShopRite in South Philadelphia packing boxes of Thanksgiving dinners to black families in the area. Due to a high degree of racial tension in South Philadelphia between Korean families and Black families, a number of Korean grocers have refused to sell Thanksgiving dinners to black families in the neighborhood. To try to combat that injustice, the Urban Affairs Coalition and the Brown family who owns the ShopRite are trying to give out at least 1000 meals over the holiday season.


Our second service project will be at a shelter for Women and Children who are trying to escape domestic violence. We will be cleaning up and organizing their community room/library and also making Thanksgiving baskets with and for the 29 families in the home. We need the following donations:
- 30 paper bags (gift bag size)
- Makers, crayons, or colored pencils
- Feathers
- Glue
- Scissors or hole punches (or other fun craft-like things)
- Candy
- Fun Dollar Store Items (Notebooks, toys, school supplies, etc)
- Small bottles or hand sanitizer or lotion
- Anything else you think a mom or kid would feel blessed by around Thanksgiving


If you have any of these items or would like to make a donation, please either drop them off at Harvest Fields in Lois Abdelmalek's office or contact Noel Habashy at noel.habashy@gmail.com before November 19th (Friday).


If you would like to join us, because we have space for more people to serve, please contact Katy Stubanas at katy.stubanas@gmail.com.
