We were recently informed that Staten Island Project Homefront is experiencing a tremendous shortage of care package supplies to be sent to deployed service members. There are thousands of New Yorkers who are currently deployed overseas who would greatly appreciate our care packages or notes of encouragement. The Student Veteran Center and Registrar’s Office would like to invite you to join us in an ongoing effort to donate care package supplies for service members overseas to be donated to Project Homefront. Donation boxes are set up for the remainder of the semester near the front entrance of the Campus Center (Building 1C) in front of the Information and Public Safety desk and in the Registrar’s Office (Building 2A, Room 110).

Please review the complete list of suggested items for donation. Also, if you know anyone who is deployed and would like to sign them up to receive regular care packages from Project Homefront, visit the organization’s Website.

Information required to register a service member includes:

-Full Name
-Gender
-Rank
-Address (Including APO/FPO)
-Contact Email

For more information, call the Student Veteran Center at 718.982.3108 or the Registrar’s Office at 718.982.2140.
