Summer Fun: JUST PLAY! 2022

More than 750 children and families throughout the tri-state area got a boost of active Summer Fun with our annual distribution. While this initiative began when playgrounds were closed during the pandemic, we have expanded it every year as more social service organizations request them for their constituents. This year we expanded deeper into Westchester County, NY by supporting hundreds of children in Greenburgh, Sleepy Hollow, and Tarrytown, while also continuing our support in Brooklyn, NJ, and CT.

The children are always excited to receive their bag, and for many it may be the first time they have their own soccer ball, jump rope, frisbee, and more. This year several of our constituents volunteered to organize a bag assembly and then deliver them to a deserving community. The volunteers included families and youth of all ages, including a Girl Scout Troop in NJ. Thank you all!
