NEW PORT RICHEY - The Community Service Council of West Pasco is kicking off its outreach program, Mission of Appreciation for Our Elderly.

The nonprofit group is collecting sweaters, sneakers and socks for seniors in need who live in local assisted-living facilities, said Rebecca Bennett of Pasco Kids First.

"We all have sweaters and sneakers we have worn maybe once," Bennett said. "We will take these as well as brand spanking new. Just be sure you would wear it and it is clean."

For information, go to www.communityservice council.org or call Bennett at (727) 452-4693.
