Forks Donates to Safe Harbor

On a 4 to 1 vote, the Forks Township BoS voted to donate $2000 to Easton Safe Harbor shelter. This donation was in response to a request from the Community Action Committee of the Lehigh Valley to donate $5634 to support 9 Lehigh Valley homeless shelters.

Just a quick reminder of the facts.  The donation of $2000 or $5632  is less than .1% of the total Forks Township expense steam in 2008 or 2009.  In the grand scheme of the Township expense budget, this is not a large donation, just a generous one.

I am grateful the Forks Township BoS found the courage and wisdom to provide a donation to the Easton Safe Harbor shelter. We always have the responsibility to help the less fortunate in our broader community. The decision is help the Easton Safe Harbor shelter is the right one!
