Mr. & Mrs. Omar Cabrera were the recipients of four Walmart $100.00 gift cards because they were the victims of a serious fire in their home in April 2009. There were 4 members of the family living there at the time. The money for the gift cards comes from the income received from the NJ/NY Volunteer Firemen's Association Clothing Bins that are placed in various towns throughout Bergen County. |
