De-Clutter And Donate: Morristown's Fill-A-Truck Event Is Here

MORRISTOWN, NJ — Little ones not so little anymore? Bring your gently used baby and toddler clothes to the Fill-A-Truck event in Morristown on March 28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., rain or shine.

For over 25 years, the Room To Grow organization has been helping low-income families get much-needed supplies through donation programs like Fill-A-Truck.

Akilah King became CEO of Room to Grow in 2015. "We equip families with critical resources during their child's first three years of life," she said in 2024 on the Kelly Clarkson show. "We offer three different types of support. The first is personalized guidance, and this is really to support the entire family. We're also making community connections, so families expand their network of support. And last but not least, families go home with essential resources."

Essential items that are "high-need" for donation include:

• Toddler clothing (sizes 2T-5T)
• Board books (Spanish and English)
• Toys (0-36 months)

Attendees of the March 28 event will also get the chance to speak with Sandra Medeiros, Room to Grow Executive Director of the New York Region, and with Fill-A-Truck host and Room to Grow New York Leadership Council Member Jessica Lobosco about how community members can get involved with the organization.

The Fill-A-Truck event will be held at 4 Baer Court in Morristown on March 28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
