Volunteers needed to help with hurricane relief effort

Caring Fallbrook residents who are truly concerned about people in Texas are invited to come to a meeting to plan the delivery of donated items to a small town that needs help after Hurricane Harvey’s visit.

So far at least 120 boxes of items have been collected, sorted, and organized to be shipped soon. A needed temporary location for sorting and packaging donated items, transport financing and logistics, and volunteer labor are issues to be discussed. We are looking for good ideas, some financial assistance, and people willing to “roll-up their sleeves” and participate.

You’re invited to join us on Friday, Sept. 15 at 7 p.m. at the Fallbrook Women’s Club, 238 West Mission Rd. If you cannot make the meeting but would like more information, you are welcome to call me at (760) 728-1152 or email me at [email protected].
