What a great community event for our town put together by Kelly Scott with Tony Arpaia as Saint Nicholas. The sky says it all!! 5Help.org is busy with our holiday drive for those in need. #5Help
Love it
Many have asked us about our 5Help Adopt-a-Family. We felt it was easiest to do a sign up genius for certain families. We will take anything and everything unopened or that has tags. This list is mainly for a certain group of homeless kids living in motels in our local area. By doing it this way, no one needs to feel like they need to give more than 1 gift to make a difference. It all adds up!! If you want to sign up for more than 1 slot, please do. We are mainly coordinating our pickup and drop off efforts to the Millstone, Monroe, Allentown, Jamesburg, Freehold, and Piscataway areas. We are adding to this list and in total, we are providing for over 1,000 local seniors and kids in our area. Every little bit helps so please go into your closets and see what you have that you or your kids never used or didn't want. Someone else who won't be getting anything for the holidays will love it! We will also have a drop off location on 12/11 at Baird Homestead from 1 -3 p.m. and Millstone Pharmacy at any time. www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0C4CA9AC22A6FDCF8-5help
Our list of children, seniors, and families in need keeps growing. Many are in motels or in low income properties and the only holiday gifts they received last year were the ones donated by 5Help.org. We will gladly take any gifts you or your kids received as presents that you either didn’t like or outgrew.
For many, your unopened and unused item sitting in a closet or on a shelf will be the only ones they receive. We also will be happy to take unused gift cards. Don’t underestimate the power of re-gifting!! Millstone Family Pharmacy once again has offered to be a local drop off and other options are available. The pharmacy also has some great gift ideas for $5-$10. Help support Tony’s small business at the same time!!
We would like to have all gifts to us by Dec. 11th.
