Once again, a group of local people are giving time and resources to assist people impacted by a devastating storm. This time it’s Puerto Rico which is still reeling from Hurricane Maria.
This week, donations are being collected for transport to Florida and from there to the island. Donations are being accepted at the following locations and times:

Friday October 6th –
Tops on Triphammer Road from 9am-noon
Tops on Elmira Road from 12:45 till 6PM
Owego United Way office 9 till 11AM
Newfield Town Hall all day

Saturday October 7th –
Newfield Town Hall till 2PM
Hickory View Farms on Millard Hill Road in Newfield from 9AM till 2PM

Tryon Transfer and Page Transportation will get the items to Florida. Once there, Faith Fellowship Church has donated shipping containers and Kasper Electric is donating generators and set up the shipping line.
Please do what you can to help.

UPDATE 10/3:
They are no longer accepting ships and shipping containers as they are inundated with them and can’t move them yet.

Donated supplies will be delivered directly to the Bonaventure Evacuation Center in Westin Florida for those who were evacuated from Puerto Rico and have no place to go.
