From the Bethel Women’s Club–

The Bethel Women’s Club (a member of the GFWC) is once again sponsoring a Community Drive to collect Christmas presents for our brave men and women in long-term care who fought for our freedom. The items must be new, with original tags and packaging and unwrapped. A complete list of all needed items can be found at all the Donation Centers (see the list below).
This year we are also supporting the Vet House and the Home for Heroes. Both are located in Danbury and are home to local veterans with specific requests, so we are gratefully accepting monetary donations to fulfill their needs. Checks may be made payable to the Bethel Women’s Club and sent c/o Geier, 15 Andrews Street, Bethel, CT 06801.

You may also bring your items or cash donations to a special Stuff-a-Van event at the Bethel United Methodist Church (Greenwood Avenue) on November 17 during their Pasta Dinner starting at 5:30 P.M.

DONATION CENTERS:
Bethel Chamber (Mon-Fri 10am – 3pm) (Greenwood Ave.)
American Pride (Greenwood Ave.)
English Apothecary (Greenwood Ave.)
Wells Fargo Bank (Greenwood Ave.)
First Congregational Church (Main Street)
