Covid -19 Phase ll
We now need your help once more, as people on Long Island are still desperately in need. For the past 30 years, we have partnered with the Gerald Ryan Center on many notable projects, among them the summer camp. This year, the Wyandanch camp has been cancelled due to the pandemic. However, the Gerald Ryan Center has been feeding 2,000 people a month since the Lockdown began. This includes: *The Elderly *Children *The Unemployed and Impoverished *Those who are medically compromised We can make a difference! Our goal is to raise an additional $3,000 to help the Gerald Ryan Center over the span of July, August, and September. Donations both large and small are all very much appreciated!
