Quantcast

From the Desk of Senator Kemp Hannon: September 1, 2011

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the many generous residents of the Sixth Senate District and beyond, who donated items to my “Back to School Drive” initiative.

Many community members dropped off important supplies to my community office this month including backpacks, spiral and marble notebooks, loose leaf, binders, crayons, markers, colored pencils, pencils, pencil cases, ballpoint pens, rulers, glue-sticks, scissors. These supplies will be distributed to underprivileged children residing within my district just in time for the new school year.

By partnering with John Theissen Children’s Foundation to help collect  “back to school” supplies for underprivileged children, we have given hope to many families and provided a brighter future to children in our district. Although my office initiative has ceased for the summer, I welcome residents to contact the John Theissen Children’s Foundation at 679-5098 for more “drop-off” locations.

For any information on upcoming community events or important New York State legislative information, please call my community office at 739-1700 or visit kemphannon.com.
