Teen Scene, Inc. entrepreneurs Gerald Decker and Eric Mens, publishers of the monthly free publications Cape Fear Voices and Teen Scene recently orchestrated a coat drive that drew community donations of nearly 150 coats for children and adults as well as new items of clothing.
The coat drive was held on Saturday December 5 at several Leland locations. On December 8, the coats were delivered to the Leland Food Pantry of Brunswick Family Assistance (BFA) for distribution to needy children and families. On hand to accept the delivery of donations at BFA’s Leland Food Pantry were Christopher Rivenbark, Beth Lewis, and Jennifer Ipatzi. Leland Fire Chief Chris Langlois, Pat Batleman of the Leland Area Rotary Club, and North Brunswick Kiwanis Club members Judy Bath, Rick de Moya, and Deb Pickett volunteered their facilities, time, and efforts to contribute to the event’s success.
