The Educational Alliance Care Package Campaign connects New Yorkers to much-needed resources and supplies.
Educational Alliance has always supported New Yorkers in need, including older adults living in isolation, families with young children, and students in under-resourced schools. From the day the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in our city, the lives of New Yorkers who live on the margins became even more uncertain and stressful. As we slowly reopen New York City, the impact of the pandemic is still deeply felt. It’s important to keep showing up.
To ensure we can maximize our impact, we are partnering with Supplies for Success to help reach as many young children as possible. Supplies for Success provides packages filled with age-appropriate school supplies so that children can attend school feeling confident.
You can join us and help bring relief to New Yorkers in need by sponsoring a care package. Your donation will make an immediate impact on an older adult, family, or young student.
Older Adult Care Package
FULLY FUNDED THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF OUR SUPPORTERS!
Social isolation is the most effective way to keep older adults safe during this pandemic. But it can also have negative effects on the health and wellness of seniors. Brighten the day of an older adult with an activity kit to help them stay stimulated while home alone.
Each care package inlcudes:
- Activity Book (in English or Spanish)
- Art Supplies
Remote Learning Care Package
Educational Alliance’s socioeconomically integrated early childhood programs help young children learn and grow regardless of their family’s income level. To keep our community safe, our students may need to spend portions of this year learning remotely. Ensure no child falls behind their peers simply because their family can’t afford remote learning resources.
Each Family Care Package includes:
- Art Supplies
- Legos + Magnatiles or Lovevery Block Set (depending on age)
- Bookshelf refresh (20 diverse and age-appropriate titles)
- Wifi-equipped tablet
