A local group has started a drive to distribute backpacks to the kids of the impacted hurricane zones in both NJ and NY. Giving kids a little sense of comfort during this trying time goes a really long way. They are asking for backpacks filled with socks, mittens, hats, stuffed animals, notebooks, coloring books, pencils, toothpaste/brushes, blankets and anything that would bring a smile to a kid’s face.
