[Greater-baltimore] NFB Members Impacted by Baltimore Protests

[Aloma Bouma]

>From Aloma: We may have missed our opportunity to help with most of the
clean-up at the Penn and North Avenues area but I am working on helping with
the senior housing building which was burned in East Baltimore as soon as
the fire department and church are ready.  If anyone would like to help with
anything please let me know.  As of now I am not certain what all help will
be needed.  Thank you, Aloma

I think it would be great for the chapter to find a way to contribute to the
clean up.

Greetings, Mark;

Thanks for your caring message and concern. this has definitely been, and I
imagine will be at least for a short while, a difficult time for our city
and loved ones. Ironic to say that Federal Hill has been quiet given its
reputation for festive gatherings. I share your concern and hope to be part
of rebuilding in whatever creative ways might present themselves, both our
Federation and our community.

Take care and be safe.

Maurice
