Help St. John's ICARE Foundation support teenagers in the Rockaway community by purchasing a personal care bag for $25!
This new initiative focuses on the health and well-being of the teenagers in the Rockaways. No person should go without daily hygiene essentials such as shampoo, body wash, deodorant, towels, feminine products, and more. Every $25 donated helps to provide an at-risk teen with a fully stocked duffle bag to assist with his/her basic daily needs.
We are grateful for a $38,000 grant received from the Amazin’ Mets Foundation that allowed us to assemble and distribute 1,000 bags at various community centers and events throughout Far Rockaway.
Thank you to our volunteers, Population Health team, our community hosts, and everyone who attended the Teen Bag Giveaway events!
Stay tuned for future distribution events.
