My daughter is bringing a NO family,
mother, father and three children to NJ for as long as necessary. She has a big house and a big heart.

I am jumping for joy!

Peace

2. How did she find them?
I can house a family of maybe 4 or 5... can't figure out how to get them here to NC! Tell her to ask that family if they know of someone else! I will come and pick them up. Just can't sit here anymore with an empty guest room in my home!!!! PLEASE tell me how to help someone!

7. MoveOn.org
I was asking the same thing 10 minutes ago and DUers told me that MoveOn has created a housing offer/finder site.

10. This is all well and good, but
how are these poor people going to find out about the offers. Someone needs to be the go between between those who are homeless and those who offer a home.

4. Good for her!
I just signed up hurricanehousing.org to offer a bedroom. Nothing is more beautiful than reading all the offers on that site. Even people who can't house people are offering to take care of their pets.
