Pay It Forward

Reminder to give back to the community.

Our 3rd grade class is collecting items to help kids and moms living in a shelter. You can donate to the children or mothers.

Items to collect for the children: toys, pajamas, or anything that will help put a smile on a child's face.

Items to collect for the mothers: small stocking stuffers such as body lotions, shampoo, perfume, socks, slippers, scarf and gloves, etc. 

We spend a lot of time and money considering what more our children need, let's help them to pay it forward this holiday season! 

 

Many thanks to Mrs. Orantes for leading this collection! 

 LET'S BRING SOME MAGIC TO,.....

West End Intergenerational Residences

 The Residence provides temporary housing and support services to homeless young mothers and their children, and permanent supportive housing to formerly homeless and low-income older adults in New York City. It is different from other facilities in that it is mixed-age. It opened in 1989 and currently supports about 54 homeless young mothers aged 18-24, who are pregnant or with one or two children aged 7 and younger. You can learn more about the organization here: http://westendres.org/intergenerational-residence/
