Morr Range, 2488 Willow Street Pike, Lancaster, is currently collecting donations for multiple local nonprofits in the Southern End. During each month until the end of December, the indoor shooting range will accept donations for a different organization through its annual campaign to support those in need throughout the community.

Each nonprofit has provided Morr Range with a list of specific items it needs the most. Donations may be dropped off during the range's normal business hours from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Tuesdays through Saturdays and from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays and Mondays. Donors will receive a ticket for a prize drawing for each item that they drop off. A prize drawing will be held at the end of each month for rewards such as clothing, accessories, firearms and training class vouchers from Morr Range.

Until Tuesday, Oct. 31, Morr Range is collecting items for Solanco Neighborhood Ministries (SNM) in Quarryville. SNM's list of requested donations includes several items for its food bank, such as chicken noodle soup, spam, canned meats, granola bars, fruit cups and other nonperishable goods.

From Wednesday, Nov. 1, to Thursday, Nov. 30, the range will highlight two Kirkwood-based nonprofits that serve veterans in the community: Warriors on the Water Ltd. and Woerth It Hollow. Warriors on the Water Ltd. offers free outdoor recreational activities such as fishing and boating for veterans and first responders. The organization has requested donations of fishing rods, tackle boxes, life vests, bait buckets and any other fishing-related gear. Woerth It Hollow, an equine therapy center for veterans, has requested Dawn dish soap, paper towels, Clorox wipes, hand sanitizer, cases of water and horse treats.

From Friday, Dec. 1, to Sunday, Dec. 31, Morr Range will accept donations for Charlie's Crusaders Pet Rescue. Eligible donations will include laundry detergent packs, disinfecting wipes, fabric softener, dish soap, garbage bags, blankets, dog food, towels and other items for canines. On Saturday, Dec. 2, Charlie's Crusaders will have adoptable dogs at the range and offer information on its mission.

Morr Range has held an annual drive for more than five years. Previously, the range hosted a one-day event to collect donations and to give out prizes to participants. After the COVID-19 pandemic, the range changed the format of the drive to a collection period that lasted three months; it decided to return to the longer collection period as it resulted in a higher amount of donations.

Tracy Fornwalt, part owner of Morr Range and SNM board member, created the drive to benefit the southern Lancaster County community, where she has lived her whole life. "My partner and I were born and raised in the area, and we're committed to giving back and being a valuable member of the community," Fornwalt said. "Starting the drive was an easy decision, and our community has been fantastic."
