With Veterans Day quickly approaching, the Washington Attendance Center in Carmi is helping veterans get some items they need. They will be having a clothing drive to donate to veterans at some of the local VA clinics and nursing homes.
You can help by simply collecting new sweatshirts, sweatpants, insulated underwear, socks, and/or slippers in their original package and bringing them to the school now through Friday, November 8th. They will partner with the Carmi Elks Lodge #1652 to distribute the items to veterans in Southern Illinois. Any business or club who brings in items will receive a shout out from Washington Attendance Center on their Facebook page.
If you have any questions, please contact Amy Whitley at 618-382-4631 or [email protected].
They thank you for your support!
