Holmdel PBA Collecting Donations for Tornado Victims

The disaster that hit Oklahoma cities and towns on May 20 reminded many in New Jersey of the devastation caused by Hurricane Sandy.

The Holmdel Police Benevolent Association is joining the countless volunteers and donation drives in their own effort to help those impacted by the tornado.

Beginning June 1, the PBA will collect supplies for Oklahoma at two locations in Holmdel. 

"All of the materials that we collect will be driven directly to the disaster area where they can be distributed to the victims.  In addition, 100% of any money collected will be used to purchase additional material that will also be distributed directly to the tornado victims," a Holmdel PBA news release said.
