Back-to-School Drive

Help children and teens head back to school with everything they need to start the year off right! We need one of each of the school supplies listed below (including backpacks) for the children and youth we are serving through each of these organizations.

• 100 for Fresh Youth Initiatives, an afterschool program serving the Washington Heights and Inwood communities of northern Manhattan.

• 80 for Children's Rescue Fund/Icahn House serving homeless women and children.

• 151 for Housing Plus which provides women and children experiencing homelessness with permanent housing.

Please purchase new school supplies and leave them in the bins in 5th Ave Narthex or 29th St. Prayer Room. Monetary donations are also welcome. Please make checks payable to Marble Collegiate Church. Write "Back to School Drive" in Memo.
