Commitment To Community

With the school season upon us next month, some New York City parents face great financial difficulty in purchasing school supplies for their children. The New York Foundling’s Back-to-School drive works to eliminate this hardship by offering supplies to students in need.

Since 1869, the agency has worked to meet the changing needs of the families and communities they serve. From now until the first week of school, your family can help one in need by making a donation to the Foundling’s Back-to-School Drive.
