P.S. 130 FAMILIES IN NEED GET SUPPORT FROM THE ONE FAMILY FUND

 

From the P.S. 130 PTA:

This November, our PS 130 community is coming together to lift one another up. During this time of uncertainty -- with the potential disruption of SNAP benefits and other critical supports -- many of our student families are facing extra challenges. 

Created by PS 130's PTA, the One Family Fund directly provides support to PS 130 families in need or struggling with food insecurity, helping with essentials such as groceries, clothing, and school supplies.

Every donation big or small helps ensure all of our PS 130 school students and their families can thrive, and feel supported and cared for by our community. 

Donate, if you can, to the One Family Fund at https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/one-family-fund to help families in our neighborhood.
