Senator Shelley Mayer said, “I am excited to once again partner with the United Way of Westchester and Putnam Counties for my annual Back-to-School Drive. The start of a new school year is a time of excitement and opportunity, but for many families in our community, it also brings the challenge of affording the school supplies their children need. If you are able, I encourage you to donate any items you can. Every contribution can make a meaningful difference. Thank you to United Way of Westchester and Putnam Counties for their partnership and work. I also thank the Bronxville Public Library, Yonkers Will Library, Mamaroneck Town Center, and Pound Ridge Town House for serving as collection sites.”
United Way President & CEO, Tom Gabriel, said, “Over 43% of our Westchester neighbors are currently struggling to afford basic necessities. That is why the United Way of Westchester and Putnam is proud to team up with Senator Mayer for another Back-to-School Drive. Not only does this drive ease the financial burden on hardworking families, but it also ensures that local students have everything they need to succeed from day one.” |
