Donate Bottled Water For Newark At Westfield Neighborhood Council

WESTFIELD, NJ - The Westfield Neighborhood Council is assisting in the effort to provide clean water in Newark by collecting cases of bottled water in conjunction with Assemblyman Jamel Holley.

One of the key weapons in Newark's fight against ongoing lead water contamination may be coming up short, EPA officials said as their filters were deemed unreliable. In response, many are switching to bottled water.

Collection points will be set up:

• Saturday from 11 a.m. through 4 p.m. at WNC's Street Fair located at Westfield Train Station, South Avenue.
• Sunday, from 10 a.m. to noon at WNC, 127 Cacciola Place
• Monday, from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at WNC, 127 Cacciola Place
