A few months ago we introduced you to Operation Tiki. Through this drive, the BayNet and the Tiki Bunnies along with many readers and local businesses were able to help a lot of local families ease the burden of providing their children with Easter baskets. It is time to ask our readers for help again. In the next few weeks students in the tri-county area will be returning to school. In today’s economy it has become stressful for any level of income family to afford the ever-growing school supply lists. We have been given a list of families that are in need of donations in Calvert, Charles, and St. Mary’s counties.
We have drop-off sites for donations in Charles and St. Mary’s currently. If you would like to donate in St. Mary’s you can drop off donations at the BayNet office located at 22316 Three Notch Road Suite B Lexington Park, MD. 20653. To donate in Charles please email the address below.
For more information on how to help please email toni.byrd@thebaynet.com in St. Mary’s County or griegolee@gmail.com in Charles County. We are working on getting a Calvert County contact. Or you can visit their Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/294929993902149/.
