Children are one third of our population and all of our future.
“No man should bring children into the world who is unwilling to persevere to the end in their nature and education.”― Plato
Help-a-Child
“It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.”― Mother Teresa
Help-a-Child is a program sponsored and coordinated by the Hastings Youth Council that matches an anonymous donor to help a local child in need at various milestones throughout the school year including:
-
recipient's birthday,
-
beginning of school year,
-
end of school year,
-
winter holiday season.
The identity of the donor and recipient remain anonymous.
The Youth Services Office helps with the selection of the child recipient and pairs him/her with a matching donor while providing gender and age of the recipient along with appropriate gift ideas. If you know of a child in need or would like to be a donor, please contact the Youth Services Office at 914-478-2471.
