: I just got back from one of the major areas where they are
accepting
: donations to help the rescue workers. I was told that they need
dry
: and clean clothes, specifically underwear, socks, t-shirts and
: sweatpants (in order of importance). While there I read signs
saying
: other things that they need and they are as follows:
:
: dust masks
: work gloves
: flashlights
: batteries
: toothbrushes and toothpaste
:
: I don't know the exact places to send these things but I amsure
that
: if you send them to the following address they will get to the
people
: who need them:
:
: Chelsea Piers
: Rescue Worker Donations
: New York, NY 10011
:
: Rescue workers are working hard, sleeping in the streets for a few
: hours and going back to work. They are often working knee deep in
: water and muck and need fresh clothes to change into between
shifts.
: The use of the other items is self-explanatory.
:
: For more information about donations, try the link below. Also
visit
: www.redcross.org to see what you can do to help them. Thank you
: everyone for your support. I know that everyone is going through
this
: with us; it may have happened in NYC but it happened to the whole
: country and beyond.
:
: If anyone wants to make a henna prayer flag and send it to me, just
: email me at the address above and I will tell you where to send
it. I

or tylenol, bottled water and nutrition bars,(like power bars) dr.
scholls insoles as well.I have friends who are at ground zero and
this is what they also need.. Since my husband who is a firefighter,
he is going tomorrow to help out(he was called)say a prayer for him
and all those who are helping. also don't forget to show your pride
and wear red, white & blue. for the offical ribbon what it looks like
