RESOURCES REAL ESTATE COLLECTS
PAJAMAS FOR LOCAL SHELTER
Resources Real Estate collected new pajamas for women and children, supporting the women’s shelter 180 Turning Lives Around as part of their community outreach program, Sharing Resources. Because women and children often flee their homes without any of their personal belongings or supplies, Carolynn Diakon, owner of Resources Real Estate, believes pajamas would not only bring a much needed necessity to the shelter, but also needed comfort for the women who reside there.
Diakon says, “We take for granted the daily necessities such as sleepwear and toiletries. Something simple like a pair of pajamas for a child, who was forced to leave their home, means so much more to those who have so very little.”
Nicole Romaine, Development Director at 180 Turning Lives Around ,in Hazlet, was on hand at the offices of Resources Real Estate on River Road in Rumson to receive the countless pairs of pajamas, slippers, and sleepwear for the shelter.
Because of the limited storage facilities at the shelter and the offices of 180 Turning Lives Around, Diakon has offered to store the surplus in her home to be distributed and collected on a need basis. This generous offer, Romaine hopes, will help keep the pajama collection ongoing and the Shelter in the forefront of donors’ minds when they make purchases throughout the year.
180 Turning Lives Around, is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to ending domestic violence and sexual assault in the community. They are committed to providing support during crisis and long term counseling, advocacy, education, and prevention, as well as outreach.
