Helping homeless vets

To the Editor:

The Joseph Pagliaro Memorial Charity People Helping People organization and the Robert F. Garrison VFW Post No. 3350 of East Rockaway are co-sponsoring a coat and accessory drive for homeless veterans.
This drive is close to my heart because my late husband, Joseph Pagliaro, was a past commander of the post and a U.S. Navy bomber in World War II.

We are collecting coats, gloves, hats and scarves for homeless veterans, both men and women. We are also in need of children's clothing, all sizes, and food.

If you are interested in donating to this worthy cause, you can drop off your contribution at the VFW post at 164 Main St., East Rockaway, any weekday from 9 a.m. to noon, or contact me at (516) 218-2055.

People Helping People would appreciate any help that you can give us. We cannot forget those who served their country and fought for our freedom.
