Due to the generosity of individuals, community volunteer groups, local businesses, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Brownie troops, the public schools, churches, religious organizations and various other civic organizations, the township of East Brunswick recently arranged for more than 120 families and senior citizens in the community to receive Thanksgiving food baskets.
The township is accepting donations of gift cards in any denomination to local department stores such as Target and Kmart. The cards will be distributed to needy families so that mothers and fathers may shop for their children for the Christmas holiday.
To donate a gift card, individuals should make the purchase and mail the card to the East Brunswick Division of Recreation, Attn: Karen Kecskes, 350 Dunhams Corner Road, East Brunswick, NJ 08816. The card also may be hand-delivered.
For more information, call 732-390- 6797.
