Still Time To Support County Holiday Charity Drive

Still Time To Support County Holiday Charity Drive

December 10th, 2012

Collection bins have been placed in the lobbies at the Gunzburger Building and the Courthouse in Coudersport for a holiday charity drive being conducted by the Potter County employees’ union. 

Non-perishable foods can be placed in the bins up until the week before Christmas, when items will be delivered to the local food bank to be distributed to the needy. Donors are asked to check expiration dates on the merchandise to assure that no outdated items are included.

The committee is also collecting needed items for Teachers Pet Rescue, an animal shelter serving much of Potter County. Items that are needed include: leashes, canned dog food, stainless feeding dishes (no plastic), paper towels, bleach, dog biscuits (Milk Bone brand only), dish soap (Dawn only), disinfectant wipes and Pedigree dog food (small breed or regular/dry). County employees are also designating proceeds from this year’s Christmas party to benefit Christmas House and the Potter County Human Services home-delivered meals program.
