Donate Sewing Machines for Our Newcomers Self-Empowerment Efforts: CBS partners with Jewish Family Services and the International Rescue Committee to assist resettling refugees in our area. Newcomers are starting sewing classes as a form of self-empowerment, and we would like to provide more sewing machines for our new neighbors. Donate self-empowerment and other items to incoming families by ordering directly from our wishlist items or by purchasing similar items (as those on the Amazon list) from other retailers and arranging for drop-off/delivery (contact Marla for arrangements).
