U.S. troops will benefit from April 10 fundraiser

American Recreation Military Services (ARMS), a nonprofit local organization that helps supply military personnel and their families with necessities, is conducting a fundraiser in conjunction with Applebee's Restaurant of Howell, Route 9 at Locust Road, (732) 961-9400.

Anyone who presents a flier April 10 from 5 to 9 p.m. will help ARMS raise funds, with 10 percent of their bill to be donated to the organization. Fliers are available at the Howell Recreation office and administration building, both at 251 Preventorium Road.

ARMS has sent over 20,000 packages to soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan over the past four years. Details: www.supportarms.org.
