Staples in Mansfield Township recently donated 419 $5 care packages to the Arc of Warren County, equaling $2,095 in supplies gifted to the agency. The care packages were donated to the agency’s Day Program and Recreation departments through its Care Packages Program.
“We are grateful to Staples Mansfield for continuing to be such a generous community partner throughout the years,” Annamaria Lalevee, chief development and communications officer at the Arc of Warren County, said. “I would like to thank Staples and General Manager Bill Ritacco for choosing the Arc of Warren County as a recipient for their Care Packages Program, and to their customers for making this gift a reality.”
Ritacco added that this donation could only be secured because of the support of the community-at-large.
“It is a pleasure being able to help a great organization like the Arc of Warren County,” Ritacco said. “I would like to thank our patrons for helping make this donation possible.”
The Arc is a national organization that has served individuals with developmental and intellectual disabilities and their family members since 1950. The Arc of Warren County is one of 700 chapters of the Arc and has served more than 1,100 people annually for the past 69 years.
