Meeting The Needs Of Families

The American Rescue Workers Inc. National Disaster Response Team and the American Rescue Workers, Inc. Hollidaysburg PA Corps is joining together to do a Disaster Relief Project in Blair County from April 7—13th, 2008!

Projects: Last year we gave out 33,171 items of clothing at our 502 Mulberry Street location.  The clothing room is in disrepair and needs new steps, and some of the walls on the inside are just without sheetrock, showing exposed insulation.  This has been the case for many years and now we have a chance to repair this much needed space. 

In addition, over 150 applications have been sent out to lower income families, three families will be selected to have some in home repairs made which will make a great difference in their lives.
