There are more opportunities to contribute to relief efforts to victims of hurricane Helene and Milton.

New Philadelphia Municipal Court has another supply drive Friday from 8 am to 6 pm at the former New Philadelphia fire station next to the police department.

Meanwhile, Wayne Township Fire Chief Josh Yoder says his other job, Berlin Gardens, has been sending down items and employees to Mitchell County, North Carolina, each week.

This is in a more rural, harder-to-access location compared to some of the other communities receiving help. Yoder adds Berlin Gardens has also sent two of its track loaders to help with cleanup in Mitchell County.  The business is also paying its employees who go down for three days of work.
