Thompson Park is a donation site only - no distribution will be made there. Items will be sorted and taken to three distribution sites in strategic areas in Monmouth County. These sites will be announced when the items have arrived at those locations.
"This is a way for residents to help out during this time of need," Sheriff Shaun Golden said in the press release. "Through this process, donations from those who were fortunate during Hurricane Sandy can assist those who were less fortunate."
