, its employees and their friends and families today marked the completion of a month-long, company-sponsored drive that collected more than $1,000, nearly 225 pairs of new infants’ and children’s pajamas and about 270 children’s books for needy local youngsters.
All the pajamas and books are to be distributed to through orphanages, shelters and other non-profit organizations. The money contributed is used to buy more pajamas for donation.
The Pajama Drive is coordinated by O&R’s Business Ethics Council in conjunction with the Pajama Program, a New-York-based organization with chapters nationwide.
