West Orange Rotary Holds Very Successful Food Collection Drive at West Orange ShopRite

On Sunday, September 23, the Rotary Club of West Orange held one of it's many food collection drives at the West Orange ShopRite in the Essex Green Shopping Plaza.

The club collected over $700 in cash donations as well as an entire van load of non-perishable food stuffs that were immediately donated to the Trinity Church Food Pantry in West Orange and kosher items were donated to a kosher food pantry in South Orange.

6 West Orange Rotarians plus friends and family members volunteered their time to collect the donations throughout the day. Mayor Parisi was there to support our efforts as well. Our new Exchange Student, Karl, who is from France and living with one of our own Rotary families, the Karus, was present to help collect donations. Karl is attending West Orange High School.

If you were unable to donate on the 23rd, you can still do so by dropping off non-perishable food stuffs at:
