Halstead Realty at 150 Montague Street (between Henry and Clinton) is directing another much-needed food & goods drive this weekend, in which they intend to pack a moving van with requested items for Hurricane Sandy residents in The Rockaways. Please bring donations by the shop Saturday & Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Broker Meryl Blackman tells BHB that the truck will arrive in front of the shop at 9 a.m. Monday, and is asking area residents to contribute specific items that donation centers have asked for. She adds that Halstead volunteers will be going door to door in areas “where many people and pets are shut in with no elevators.” See the list below…
