Plus, over 5,000 lbs of clothes will be given to those in need in Eastern Europe, Latin America, and in domestic violence shelters in Southern New Jersey!

Br. Jerry, Anna (09-10 FVM!!!), Juan (our A&E Clothing Friend), and Lori load clothes into the truck.

With your help, we filled 2/3 of the truck! Literally hundreds of bags poured in over the last few weeks.
