Twin County United Way has partnered with the Red Cross to set up a donation center for both firefighters and potential victims of area wildfires.
The donation center is located at Erb’s Ace Hardware, located at 141 Thain Road in Lewiston.
Drop off is at the inside front of the building near the cashier area. Hours for drop off are the store hours, which are 8 a.m.-6 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. on Sunday.
For donated items, water/Gatorade and light snacks that can be carried in pockets like granola/cereal/energy bars are the best.
Please do not bring items that won’t keep or will need refrigeration.
At this time, there is no need for clothing or other household items.
Monetary donations should be made to accounts set up at local financial institutions.
For more information, please contact Twin County United Way Chief Executive Officer Suzanne Johnson at 208-743-6594 or TCUW board president Bert Sahlberg at 208-305-5332.
