With no official Plainfield observance of the 8th anniversary of 9/11 listed in the papers or on the city's website, readers wishing to make a personal commemoration may want to take part in the Tri-County Red Cross' Day of Service and Remembrance (see more here).
Joining with other nonprofits across the country, the Plainfield area's disaster-relief and assistance agency is inviting folks to donate items needed in disaster kits which are given to victims displaced from their homes by fires or floods --
Log on to www.tricountyredcross.org/ or call 908-756-6414 to make a donation. Items may be delivered to the Red Cross offices at West Front Street and Central Avenue.
- Lightly worn or used clothing and shoes;
