This request is for the benefit of a family of 5. MO is the single parent to 4 children ages 16, 11, 6 and 6 months. She lives in subsidized housing and since having her baby, has not been employed. She has a dryer in her apartment but no washer. Given the size of her family, you can imagine the amount of laundry that has to be done to keep everyone in clean clothes. Having a washer in the apartment would make taking care of her family much easier as she can attend to her infant and do laundry while in her own home. MO is open to a used washer that is in good condition, not necessarily expecting something new.
