Derby official collecting used Halloween costumes for needy city children

This is a message from Derby Town/City Clerk Marc Garofalo: 

The Derby Town/City Clerk’s Office will be collecting slightly used Halloween costumes for use next year by city children. 
Every year parents spend a lot of money on costumes that are worn only once. Unfortunately, there are a number of families that can’t afford a new costume. 
This project will help those in need for next year.

Costumes can be brought to the Town/City Clerk’s Office, 1 Elizabeth St., during business hours - Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Thursday from 8:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Please spread the word to friends and family to promote recycling and helping our neighbors.

Thanks to Derby teacher Jenny Ames for the great tradition that we started last year!
