Friendship Perk ‘n Brew collected donations on behalf of the Bloomfield-Garfield Corp., which started a fund for the families.
"You gotta help people in need," he said. "These are our neighbors in need. And that's for us to do, rather than our government. To help our fellow man."
Owner Nick Redondo set up an auction of donated goods and services to augment cash donations.
