Purple Heart Partners with Green Drop to Make Donating Even Easier

The Purple Heart is hoping to make it easier for donors to support the organization.

You may have noticed the bright green building that popped up not long ago at South Trooper and Audubon roads in Audubon, but did you know it had a purple heart?

That's right, the Green Drop Charitable Donation Center supports Purple Heart veterans. Residents can drop off clothes, household items and other goods, safe in the knowledge that they'll go to a good cause.

The center is open from weekdays from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m, Saturdays from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
