VU PHL is spreading the word by distributing informational flyers throughout the city!
What we’ll be doing:
After an orientation at Uhuru Furniture, we’ll break off into small groups and distribute informational flyers in different neighborhoods.
Door hanging is an important way to support the work of Uhuru Furniture by getting the word out to the broader community in Philadelphia.
