With the holidays just around the corner, Assemblyman Ari Brown, the U.S. Marines, Patricia Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick, Retired U.S. Marine Major Chuck Kilbride and the Toys for Tots Program brought some joy to the youngsters at the Five Towns Early Learning Center in Inwood along with the children of the Leon Mayer Fund and Kosher Response. The early holiday toy delivery featured approximately 90 high-end Lego brand plastic construction toys. The toys, which were delivered to the Center, carry a value of $100 to $400 each, and approximately 90 total toys were delivered. Also at the toy donation event were the children of the Five Towns Early Learning Center, the Center’s Executive Director, Paula S. Robinson. In addition, the children of the Leon Mayer Fund and Kosher Response, represented by Nechama Goldfedder, attended the event.
“We are about to embark upon the holidays, and every child wants and deserves a toy to make the season feel special,” said Brown. “I want to thank Major Chuck Kilbride of the U.S. Marines Toys for Tots Program for making the holidays brighter for lots of young people.”
“I am excited to be part of the Toys for Tots effort to make the season joyous and exciting for a group of young
people in our communities,” said Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick. “This is one of the most rewarding experiences for the folks who are giving the toys, and the children seem to be having fun too.”
“As the head of the Toys for Tots Program, I am committed to ensuring that every child has a great toy during the holiday season,” said Kilbride. “With the help of the U.S. Marines, Assemblyman Ari Brown, Patricia Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick and a host of volunteers and donors, we are going to make this the best year ever.”
“The Toys for Tots initiative is great undertaking with a wonderful goal of making the holidays more joyous for young people,” said Robinson. “I want to thank everyone involved in spreading some holiday cheer at the Five Towns Early Learning Center.”
At the event, the U.S. Marines, Major Kilbride, Assemblyman Brown and Ms. Canzoneri-Fitzpatrick distributed the toys to students and youngsters and exchanged holiday greetings.
“Happy holidays to all, especially our young students at the Five Towns Early Learning Center,” concluded Brown. “May these toys add to the joy and warmth of the season.”
Just another political stunt. What did these people do about the rampant anti semitism in Rockville Centre? I will vote for Ken Moore
PR, is rampant Anti Semitism one bigoted lady at a town hall meeting, or is it more like Jews getting clobbered in NYC on a near daily basis?
Ken Moore’s plan to fight violence…including anti Jewish violence:
From his website: “Ken will also fight for additional funding for community based violence intervention programs to help keep disadvantaged young people from making choices that could negatively impact their futures.”
Yup, that should do the trick.
