PARSIPPANY — John Guest USA, 20 East Halsey Road helped out Kiwanis Club of Greater Parsippany by accepting deliveries of over 200 winter jackets.
Member Gordon Meth was seeking a company with a loading dock to accept delivery of hundreds of winter coats for Kiwanis Club to distribute to the homeless community. To date Jackets acquired was 215; Jackets donated were 149, and 66 more jackets to be distributed. Great job Gordon Meth!
