The Family Service League will hold its annual "Backpacks for Back to School" drive on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, supplying local underprivileged children with backpacks filled with school supplies.
This will take place at the Olsten Family Center on:

The backpacks are filled with school supplies for the up-coming school year and will be distributed to local low-income families struggling with financial hardship. All of the items were either donated or purchased with funding provided by Bethpage Federal Credit Union, New York Community Bank, Capital One Bank, National Grid, and many other corporations, civic and community groups, and individuals. More than 2,000 children will receive the school supplies they need to begin school prepared, confident, and ready to learn.
