A local non-profit group is now taking donations on-line. The group, called Bay Aid Franklin, is collecting money to help local seafood workers who are facing an economic disaster because of recent cold weather and flooding.
Many local families are finding it difficult to make ends meet because the bay has been closed so often in recent months and because there are very few other employment opportunities at this time. BAY AID Franklin was established by the Franklin’s Promise Coalition in partnership with over 30 civic organizations, churches, government entities, businesses, and volunteers. All of the money they raise helps local seafood workers with the essentials like food, rent and utilities.
You can find out much more about the group and make a donation on-line using a credit card or paypal at www.bayaidfranklin.org.
