Donations were sent to the Bahamas and the Carolinas for Hurricane Dorian relief after the drive effort by ERL Intermodal and WIBX that was held at Hannaford in New Hartford on September 12th. Donations continued to pour in days after the event had concluded.

The drive to collect supplies for hurricane victims in the Carolinas and the Bahamas last week filled one tractor trailer, and half of another; but, that's not where it ended. Donations continued to roll in on Friday and over the weekend.

WIBX and ERL Intermodal are holding a supply drive on Thursday to benefit victims of Hurricane Dorian in the Carolinas and the Bahamas. The event will run until 7 p.m. in the parking lot of the Hannaford on Commercial Drive in New Hartford. The first truck was nearly filled at around noon, and a second truck was brought in to keep collecting.

WIBX's First News with Keeler in the Morning and the Empire Recycling Family of Companies is partnering to bring relief to areas ravaged by Hurricane Dorian. The supply drive will take place Thursday, September 12th from 6:00 am to 7:00 pm in the parking lot of Hannaford Supermarket, 4593 Commercial Drive, New Hartford.

The fearsome Category 4 storm slowed almost to a standstill as it shredded roofs, hurled cars and forced even rescue crews to take shelter until the onslaught passed.
