WestAid must vacate its current location on Bryan Irvin Road by Oct. 15. Many friends of WestAid have been searching for a new location, and it has been difficult.
We are hopeful that a property on Camp Bowie will be WestAid’s new home. WestAid has never had to pay rent or utilities, but that will now change. The rent alone will be about $1,450 per month and utilities will also need to be paid.
We have been unable to promote any kind of funding campaign in the community as we did not know how much was needed or where/how it would be spent. The urgency of WestAid’s Oct. 15 move out date gives us a very short time frame to raise necessary funds.
Some improvements are necessary, meaning funds as well as donations of time and materials are needed as soon as possible to make this happen. Electricians, plumbers, carpenters, painters, movers, and general help are needed. Painting supplies, flooring, shelving etc. are also needed.
Anything and any amount of time you can donate are appreciated. WestAid needs your assistance to achieve this goal. If you can help, please contact WestAid (817-737-9338) or Peggy Grona.
