ALTON – State Rep. Dan Beiser, D-Alton, is hosting a supply drive for Oasis Women’s Center beginning January 19, 2016 through February 19, 2016.  Donations can be dropped off at Beiser’s constituent service office, located at 528 Henry Street in Alton between 9:00 am – 4:00 pm.

“Due to the current budget impasse, many organizations such as Oasis Women’s Center are suffering,” said Beiser.  “Oasis has been able to remain open despite a lack of funding, but the continuing budget stalemate has created a large strain.  I want to help ensure that they will be able to continue providing aid to women and children in need.  The supply drive will help to alleviate some of the burden that they are facing.”
