Chairs from PNC Bank

Today we received more furniture for our new offices! One of our Fun Company sponsors, PNC Bank, was reorganizing their offices and had stuff to give away to nonprofits. Before this trip, we desperately needed chairs. Fortunately, PNC had many that fit our needs.

We scored some great matching chairs that will look awesome in our new conference room, a couple of rolling desk chairs and some occasional chairs.

We also ran into an old MET friend - Marilyn Orsinger. She was also at PNC to pick up donated furniture for a nonprofit arts organization - The Delaplaine.

Once again company member Milee McDonald came through with a truck - thanks Milee (and Merch)!

.It was raining off and on today, but we lucked out and managed to get everything back to the MET without getting wet. We started to unload our goodies, and I found out that one of the chairs was too heavy for me...and dropped it:


Milee helps me recover the dropped chair, but we're both laughing too hard!

Thank you Stacey and PNC, our chair needs have been met and we have almost everything we need to make our new space functional!
