NEPMA PestVets Launches Third Annual Clothing Drive

MANCHESTER, N.H. – The New England Pest Management Association(NEPMA) PestVets Unit has launched its third annual clothing drive to benefit Liberty House in Manchester, N.H., which provides substance-free housing and support to veterans experiencing homelessness. The drive runs from Oct. 1 through Dec. 12.

PestVets is collecting new underwear, socks, t-shirts and sweatpants in all sizes for both men and women. Donations can be dropped off at any SiteOne location in New England, or with Forshaw, which will also collect items during their regular delivery routes.

“Each donation offers comfort and dignity to a veteran working to rebuild their life,” said Kelley Altland, chair of the New England PestVets Unit. “We’re proud to continue supporting Liberty House and the veterans they serve.”

Liberty House helps veterans overcome challenges such as substance misuse, housing insecurity and unemployment through its 4-Step Program: Recovery, Wellness, Employment and Transition to Independence, said NEPMA. In addition to housing, NEPMA said Liberty House supports hundreds of community veterans with food, clothing and transportation assistance.
