Volunteers Donate Truck-Load Of Food, Cleaning Supplies To Survivors Of Deadly Bronx High-Rise Fire
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- There was an unexpected surprise Saturday for survivors of the deadly Bronx high-rise fire.
Several volunteers from the organization Making A Way Housing and the Coalition of Us united gave away a truck-load of food and cleaning supplies to families at the Twin Parks Plaza.
They wanted to help the survivors of the tragic apartment fire that killed 17 people, including eight children.
"After learning of what we've been struggling with, we partnered up to figure how not only just hand out food but also necessities -- cleaning products, diapers, paper towels, toiletries, bleach, all kind of things to help families get back into the buildings," organizer Andy King said.
About 100 families received food and much-needed cleaning supplies.
