State Representatives Themis Klarides (R-114), Charles Ferraro (R-117) and Kathy Kennedy (R-119) will be volunteering to raise money for local residents-in-need by collecting for the Salvation Army at the Orange Walgreens at 54 Boston Post Road on Friday, December 13 from 10 to 11 a.m.
The lawmakers welcome all constituents to stop by and help make this fundraising event a success! If you are unable to make it on December 13 you can also visit the Salvation Army’s website at www.salvationarmyusa.org to learn of other ways to do good this holiday season; for example, by donating cars, clothing, household goods, airline miles, bonds, and stocks, or volunteering for the community.
As a group, the state Republican caucuses have raised more than $200,000 for the Salvation Army over the past several years. The Salvation Army responds to natural disasters such as wildfires and tornadoes, provides meals and toys to families in need, and conducts research and analyses regarding human needs around the country. They also provide adult rehabilitation, veteran services, elderly services, missing person searches, housing assistance, youth recreation, sponsorship, and support in the fight to end human trafficking.
