Our kids can do something about Sandy

Let's honor our veterans by protecting and serving fellow New Yorkers affected by Sandy.


Bring the kids and learn an easy way to make scarves without knitting or crochet needles.

You'll be fascinated and your children will be proud that they're helping fellow New Yorkers stay warm.  This activity is ideal for parents/ guardians with children that are 6 and older, but even 3 year olds can help out.

This Parents As Primary Teachers "I, too, am America" activity is being hosted by the Brooklyn Movement Center at Freebrook Academy, 375 Stuyvesant Avenue between
Decatur and Bainbridge Streets - just a couple of blocks from the Utica Avenue train station near Boys & Girls High School.

Saturday
Whether or not you can join us today, mark your calendar for November 17th, 10am-3pm when we'll be distributing scarves, hats, gloves, coats, blankets, and prepared food to Coney Island residents.

Urban Neighborhood Services, a non-profit organization in Coney Island, had its furniture and equipment ruined by Sandy and is making the hollowed out office available on weekends for relief distribution.

Individuals and groups interested in contributing to this Saturday's initiative by volunteering or donating the aforementioned items, please e-mail info@parentsasprimaryteachers.org or call Parents As Primary Teachers, Inc. at 718-857-8487.

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

Chris Rock said it best, African Americans are shown more 'love' for doing a 'bid' and getting outRead More of prison than to graduate school with a degree. When this 'hood mentality' starts to change, then you will see more than a trickle of AA passing advanced math courses.
