The public is asked to donate nonperishable food items such as canned vegetables and meats, pasta and rice to two collection sites: Miller’s office, located at 83-91 Woodhaven Blvd. in Woodhaven; and Sacred Heart Rectory, located at 83-17 78th Ave. in Glendale, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily.
Anyone who has items to donate but is unable to make the trip can arrange for a pickup by a 104COP member. To request a pickup, contact 104COP President Frank Kotnik by calling 1-718-497-1500 or sending an email to GCOP19@aol.com.
