Dear Editor:
As the rescue efforts in Haiti continue, hygiene will inevitably become a serious issue. Flanagan Productions has begun a soap and Purell drive to send to those in need. We have selected soap and hygiene products because by the time the items reach the island, the initial rescue efforts will have subsided and health will become the main focus of rebuilding.
We ask that beginning Friday, Jan. 15 through Monday, Feb.1, you visit one of the following locations with your donation of Purell or a bar of soap: Secaucus Public Library, 1379 Paterson Plank Rd. Secaucus, NJ 07094; Bloomfield Public Library, 90 Broad St. Bloomfield, NJ 07003-2599; Queen of Peace Church, 21 Church Place, North Arlington, NJ; Marras Drugs and CVS Drugs, in Secaucus.
An updated list of drop off locations and other information will be available www.bit.ly/haitidrive .
John Flanagan
