Join the Edgemont Community Council Fall 2023 Service Day on Saturday, October 14, as we help local children and families in need.
The Sharing Shelf was founded to address clothing insecurity and meet the basic material needs of low-income children and teens in Westchester County.
Nearly 26% of Westchester children live in poor or low-income homes, and many lack access to clean clothing, as well as everyday necessities such as socks, underwear, shoes, toothbrushes, and soap. This impacts many aspects of their lives – from chronic absences from school, to bullying, to low self-esteem.
Sign up now and join your neighbors in a gratifying and meaningful community service opportunity. We will be filling hygiene kits, organizing diapers and preparing clothing among other projects at Sharing Shelf’s warehouse in Port Chester. Two sessions are available: 9:30-11:30 a.m. and 12-2 p.m. To underwrite the supplies used during these activities, we’re requesting a contribution of $50 for a group of 2 or $100 per family (up to 4 volunteers).
Please click here to register for one of the two service sessions.
If you’re not able to join us in person, please still consider donating to support this worthy initiative. You can make a donation by clicking here.
