| Superstorm Sandy Volunteer Opportunities |
|
For anyone
interested in volunteering some time to help Superstorm Sandy victims:
there is still a huge need. The shore continues to deal with debris like
fallen trees and power lines, gas shortages and limited operation of
food stores due to lack of power. Many shore residents have lost their
jobs and still can't get back into their homes.
If you would like to help, Cheryl
Mulliken will be coordinating volunteers with COA for a relief project
being run by the Church of Visitation in Brick Township. Volunteers are
needed for many different jobs including signing families in, boxing up
supplies and delivering them as needed. The hours of operation are any
time between 8:00 am - 6:00 pm (there is no minimum or maximum hours
required) on any day from Monday through Saturday for the next six weeks
only. After that, supplies will be centralized in a warehouse located
in Lakewood and volunteers will be needed for years to come.
Cheryl will be
volunteering every other Tuesday for the next six weeks and any
additional days that she is not scheduled to work. If you would like to
join her, please contact her at tsbgirl@aol.com or 609-689-4889. To learn more about the Church of Visitation's project, click here.
