For the past several years we have participated in Project Backpack. This year we are partnering with Council Member Steve Matteo to distribute backpacks.

Delivery of Backpacks. Meet at Council Member Steven Matteo’s office on Tuesday, August 23 at 1:00 PM. His office is at 900 South Avenue, Suite 403.

If you cannot participate in this presentation but want to contribute, please bring filled backpack to Holtermann’s Bakery on Arthur Kill Road by Monday, August 22.

For additional information, contact Diane Seridge at 718-984-8294.

We hope that you will join us in helping the children of Staten Island start on a good footing for the year.
