Hello Fellow Rotarians,

In visiting with the Rotary Club of Stroudsburgs of Pennsylvania, they have a Rotarian that has “donated” the use of a semi-truck(s) and warehouse space for donated items. Both monetary and donated items are accepted, of course, and the donated items work very well because they do not have to go out and shop. The items are shipped directly to the warehouse location where they will put the boxes on a semi to New Jersey.

For your consideration, I'm announcing drop off zones in the newspaper and Facebook, and would like to include any business that would like to be included so this can be a community-wide event. Please let me know asap so it can be announced quickly.

The list below are items most needed as they have an overwhelming supply of clothing. If you would like to donate or collect items for the donation, please drop off at any Meridian Trust location or at the November 14th Lunch Meeting.

Toiletries

Cleaning items

Paper Towels

Trash Bags

Laundry Detergent (Concentrate)

Batteries

Small Tools

We will run the campaign November 9 - November 18th. This is a Cheyenne Rotary Club sponsored community event. When I spoke to the Stroudsburgs Rotary Club, they asked if it was Wyoming, Pennsylvania, I replied it was the State of Wyoming...she was floored! She was star-struck and was so appreciative that our Club would reach out!

(Please note, the District Governors will be running a separate campaign for monetary donations.)

We need your help to make it a successful city-wide campaign! Please help with obtaining donations and/or a drop off zone. You can make a direct difference, today.
