(Smithtown, NY)…Through the generosity of the constituents in
Legislator Rob Trotta’s legislative district and neighboring communities, as
well as the students, parents, teachers and staff at the Fort Salonga Elementary
School, several hundred winter coats, sweaters, scarves, hats and gloves were
collected and distributed to various organizations that provide assistance to
individuals and veterans in need.
“With the very cold weather we have been experiencing, I am grateful to
everyone who took the time to go through their closets and to donate their
gently used coats for people of all ages who are in need of warm coats,” said
Legislator Rob Trotta.

Legislator Trotta is pictured with some of the coat donations, as well
as with a brand new jacket from NASA that was given along with other coats by
his friend and neighbor Rob Rine.
