PS 132 Did It Again!!!
In just over a week's time, PS 132, Conseylea School, went full speed ahead blasting out the word to parents that it was again that time of year to collect gently used plastic toys for children in need. The response, as has been for the past 4 years, was overwhelming! They collected nearly 1,700 toys and were able to donate to three organizations as a result. With the support of school administration and their custodial team, school parent, Danielle Sanchez, has taken on the collection each year and has not only put her heart and soul into the effort, but takes a week off from work to organize a small team of volunteer parents (Eloise Corr-Danch, David Wills, and Suzanne Puntillo) to sort out the toys by age and need for the various recipients.
With such a huge haul of toys, 1-800-GOT-JUNK? volunteered to pick up and deliver the goods to Ocean Hill School, Brooklyn Ascend School, and Rainbow Housing. The toys are now in the hands of some very deserving children who can benefit from socialization, learning and exercising their imaginations with these colorful tools of play.
Thank you PS 132. You go above and beyond every year!!
