Brooklyn Marriott donates household items to veterans
While Mayor Bill de Blasio has made an effort to ensure a roof over every veteran’s head, the New York Marriott at the Brooklyn Bridge is making sure that they have plates to eat off of under those roofs.
The Marriott donated 1,600 plates, 100 blankets and 100 pillowcases to Gen. (Ret.) Dr. Loree Sutton and the Department of Veterans Services last Friday. Those items will go to veterans for whom the city recently found housing.
