Brookline Thrives updates & needs, week of Feb 5 - Feb 9

Posted: 2/5/2024 10:01 am

From Sharon Brockmann, Brookline Thrives Manager:

Hello Everyone,

I woke up Friday morning with a twinge in my back and unfortunately as the day unfolded it turned in to some kind of annoying back pain. I have rested over the weekend with a heated pad; but it's still not quite healed so for this week I cannot lift anything heavy. As such I really could use help on Tuesday around 1:30pm (slightly earlier than usual) to help with unloading inventory at 218 New Terrace Road Thrives HQ. If you are comfortable carrying boxes up stairs I could use the help.

Our packing shifts are full this week; but please consider signing up as a SUBSTITUTE. We quite often have last minute cancellations so these are very important to have filled as a back up.

Thanks, Sharon
