Free: New Religious (Mary) battery candle (Alameda West End) Perfect for a gift. It’s a candle with Mother Mary printer on it and has battery operated flame. Brand new. I did not want to unwrap the nicely packaged candle so I have included a pic of mine which has the Divine Mercy on it. The one I am giving away has Mother Mary instead of Divine Mercy. Hope that makes sense.

Request: Small gift bags or boxes (about 12) (San Leandro) Hi! Looking for about a dozen small gift bags (lunch sack size). I make little holiday goodie bags for my team and try very hard to not purchase new packaging. Unfortunately, this year, I've run out of recycled bags and acquisition has been slow. In the past, I've used small drawstring pouches (like 5" x 7" would work), paper lunch bags, small brown handle shopping bags, and gift bags. This year, I think everything could also fit in small gift/treat boxes (like around 4"x6"). If you've got anything that fits the bill (would love if they matched at least in type, e.g., all handle bags, all boxes; though 8 is a good enough number for matching), please let me know! They don't have to be in absolutely perfect condition, but please no stains/grease stains, not broken, preferably not torn. Corners can be a little banged up :) Thank you!
Free: Star balloon (Piedmont) Fabulous star balloon. Left over from my daughter’s birthday party. It’s lost a little of its air, but as you can see, it has held up remarkably well. It would make me happy if it could have another go-around.

Free: File cabinet, Anderson Hickey (Diamond Heights/Glen Park) Anderson Hickey, 4 drawer, black file cabinet. Although not positive, I think it's a ball-bearing file cabinet which won't tip over when all drawers are open. The 4th (bottom) drawer doesn't close smoothly like the others which drives me nuts and I don't have the patience to fix it. Free. P/u afternoons/evenings (not usually available mornings). Might be able to deliver depending.

Request: Android phone for low income senior (Alameda near Park Street) Hi I'm trying to help out a 78-year-old friend who lives in a trailer in San Leandro. He has very little money only social security. Does anyone have an android phone they could give him? He had his service cut off by AT&T. I got him mobile service through the CA Lifeline program via Gen Mobile but the phones cost at least $70. (I have given him enough money and I don't want to give him any more. So I'm not going to pay for the phone.) He is accustomed to Android phones so that would be best. Anything that has a fairly updated Android operating system, please. Thank you!
