Senior Project Nets $1,067 in Domestic Violence Shelter Supplies
Shannon Rosetti, a Senior at Punxsutawney Area High School, chose Community Action, Inc.’s Crossroads Shelters to benefit from her Senior Project. Working with the Dollar Tree Stores in DuBois and Punxsutawney, Shannon gathered 776 products worth $822.56 for Crossroad's DuBois facility and 231 products worth $244.86 for Crossroad's Punxsutawney facility. Items donated included: school supplies; children’s books and toys; medications; kitchen and bath supplies; and personal hygiene items. Crossroads provides shelter for victims of domestic violence in Clearfield and Jefferson Counties. Shelter beds are consistently full; families are waiting for assistance. Shelters rely heavily on donations.
