Items Needed:
Blankets
Sleeping bags
Small, one-person tents
Hand/foot warmers
Gift cards for local fast-food restaurants to provide warm meals
Wilson County EMA will be out in the community distributing these items to help keep them warm.

This weekend, there will be a spot designated at the front door for drop-off that will be checked periodically throughout the day.
