Toy, Coat and School Supply Drive Launced to Help New Yorkers in Need

 

A statewide toy, coat and school supplies holiday giving drive has been launched to benefit families in need throughout New York. 

"New Yorkers have a long tradition of supporting those in need, especially during the holidays,” Governor Cuomo said. "I encourage all New Yorkers to celebrate in that same spirit by keeping our less fortunate neighbors in mind and pitching in to help make this a happy holiday season for everyone."

The Office of General Services has set up drop-off locations across the state for businesses and individuals to bring the toys, coats and school supplies, which will be distributed to families in underserved communities throughout New York. The drop-off locations will be collecting donations from Friday, November 27 to Friday, December 18.
