The sound of hammers pounding on nails rang through the air. People worked hard. They laughed. There was the feeling of an old-fashioned barn raising similar to ones held back in the pioneer era.
Over 800 volunteers turned out to participate in the Rebuilding Together Baltimore project that repaired the homes for 31 low-income homeowners in Baltimore, Maryland. And MyWay Mobile Storage was part of that charitable activity.

Whenever people try to describe the extent of a problem or entity with adjectives picturing the actual extent of it is something that is always left up to the imagination of the reader/viewer. Words like big, large, tremendous, huge or enormous all invoke intense images, but they can also be used just to grasp the attention of the viewer/reader. What people need are numbers.

Hope is a valuable commodity, yet it is one that is impossible to put a price tag on. Ask anyone on a diet and they’ll likely say they hope to use some weight; most diets fail when people lose hope. If you ask may people that are in need of hope due to a serious or terminal illness in the family and you’d be hard pressed to find anyone that says no.

We all would love to figure out how to get more done with our day whether it is more work, straightening up the house, spending more time with the family, working out, or just having fun. Whenever possible we like to try to do things that allow us to cover as many things as we possibly can. The same can be said for the relationship that many self storage facilities have with local charities.

Because of the recession, many cities across the United States struggle to have enough monies to fund different services for their community. When the economy is bad, there is less money in the city coffers. Less money usually means fewer services. The Eastside Family Emergency Shelter in Baltimore is one such service that struggles to have enough money to fund its operations. Because of this, the shelter always welcomes donations.

It is not uncommon for major companies and organizations to get involved in some sort of charity work. Often times it is there way of giving back to the community that has helped make them the success that they are. However, if you ask whomever is in charge of charitable activities for these organizations they will all complain about the same problem.

There are a lot of things that people like to think relate to each other. Milk and chocolate chip cookies; peanut butter and jelly; baseball and summer. People are often able to find relationships in just about everything if they want to. Sometimes it can be hard to do; other times it’s easy.

April showers bring a lot more than just May flowers. They also bring the urge to do a little spring cleaning in the house, garage, attic, car, self storage unit—pretty much anywhere we tend to gather ‘stuff.’ Many people will hold a garage sale once they finish their spring cleaning to make a few bucks. Sounds logical, right?
