NEGLEY, Ohio — More help is headed to the East Palestine area to aid in the relief efforts in the wake of the February Norfolk Southern train derailment as the non-profit Soup Mama Official Inc. is set to bring 20 trailers of goods to the area Sunday.
According to Soup Mama Public Relations Director Carolyn Collins, her organization stepped up because it felt the federal government did not.
The goods, which include non-perishable food items, water and air filtration devices, baby diapers, baby formula, pet supplies, personal hygiene products, cleaning supplies, will be distributed at the Negley Fire Department at 10:30 a.m. Sunday.
Residents of East Palestine and other surrounding communities are eligible to receive goods.
Soup Mama Official Inc. is a grassroots organization incorporated in New York.
