The “All Things Kids” clothing and school supply drive will be held at the Salvation Army on Aug. 17 and 18.
The goal is to have enough clothes, sizes newborns to 18, for students to start the school year. Many local businesses are supporting this drive with donations and letting their location be a drop-off place for donations. All of these clothes and school supplies will be free to anyone who needs them.
Anna Daniels, social services director of the Salvation Army, hopes that people will bring the clothes to them instead of trying to sell them online or at a rummage sale. The Salvation Army is making it easy for people to donate by offering to pick up donations.
TAUNTON It s very difficult to keep a restaurant open. I mean, we basically just keep it open for the employees, more or less, said Taunton City Council President and Liberty and Union Ale House owner Chris Coute.
The restaurant is one of 24 Taunton-area small businesses that will receive a total of over $1 million in grant money to help them stay afloat while the state maintains COVID-19 restrictions on businesses. The money comes from the state s COVID-19 Small Business Grant Program.
These businesses, located in Taunton, Dighton and Raynham, include restaurants, preschools, salons and other types of small businesses. Most of the businesses received between $25,000 and $75,000 in grant money.
