Veterans' Donations

You might have noticed a large red box in the Narthex which is awaiting items to augment the wish list of the veterans at this worthy facility. This summer our church is emphasizing their need for all sizes of men’s FLIP FLOPS, LAUNDRY PODS, DRYER SHEETS, and all occasion or blank CARDS. Any suggestions or questions can be addressed to Judy Linger or Nanette Chardoussin at [email protected], [email protected].
​
Thanks for all you do to support the many needs of our friends in the county, needs which often go unmet. In this ​beautiful place, It’s easy to forget that there are many folks who have been battered by life’s twists and turns.

The State of New Jersey Department of Military and Veterans Affairs operates Veteran's Haven North, a halfway house for homeless veterans, in Glen Gardner. The house is in constant need of consumable items which are presented to each new resident as they enter the program. 
The following is a "Wish List" of their current most acute needs:

• Shower shoes (flip flops) especially sizes L and XLfor men and women
• NEW Twin XL bed linens - sheets & comforters
• New standard bed pillows
• Towels (hand and bath)
• AM/FM Alarm Clocks
• Toiletries (body wash, deodorant, razors, shaving cream, etc)
• New clothing - Men's boxers all sizes, sweat pants sizes M, L, XL, Jeans/pants sizes 32+, Shirts sizes M and larger
• New men's sneakers size 7.5+
• USB thumb drives
• Single use Laundry Pods (Laundry Detergent)
• Laundry Sheets
• Reusable laundry bags
• Travel  mugs with lids
• Used cars (to be raffled off to a veteran in house that can afford to register and insure it)
• Old display cases for our military displays
• Military pictures or art work for display

There will be a box in the church narthex labeled Veteran's Haven North for our donations to these men and women who have served. Thank you for your help.

Monetary donations are always welcome and accepted.  Any monetary donations will be used for quality of life items for our veterans.  Organizations wishing to spend money for the facility instead of  donating it can contact the superintendent's office 908-537-1963 for a list of items.
