Erie County Donates Used Furniture to IIB
 
Published Tuesday, December 15, 2009 7:00 am

Erie County will donate used furniture to the International Institute of Buffalo's Refugee Resettlement Department.  The County, having determined that the furniture, while useful, was not valuable enough to warrant selling at auction, decided to make the furniture available to the clients we will resettle in the 2010 year.  For more information, refer to the December 15 Buffalo News Article.
