As we have for more than two decades, the Bertha Harris Women’s Center is doing a gift drive to benefit Safe Horizon on Staten Island.

Please join us in our efforts to make the holiday season cozier for youth and families on Staten Island whose lives have been significantly disrupted by physical and emotional violence.

The Cozy Drive aims to gather new warm clothing — hats, gloves, scarves, and coats — for residents in Safe Horizon sheltered accommodations.

The Gift Drive aims to gather toys, books, and other gifts for young people, mostly of school age. Please, no violent toys or toys requiring batteries (rechargeable toys okay).

Please see the online flyer for drop off points through Thursday, Dec. 5. And save the date to join us for the Wrapping Party on Friday evening, Friday, Dec. 6.
