About the project
Volunteers for Springfield Park, Inc. will be celebrating our 4th Annual Tree Lighting at our park in Springfield Park, Queens, New York. To help us celebrate this festive time we are preparing to have gifts for our neighborhood kids. This year aside from hot chocolate and cookies we would like to have gifts under the tree for those who are underprivileged and need coats and clothing. Our goal this year is to raise $2,000.00. Each donor will be matched with each dollar you donate*.
The Steps
We plan to purchase the items from funds that are donated to this project for the holidays.
Why we‘re doing it
As volunteers we want to give back to our community as well as reaching out to other residents that we need their support in keeping our park safe as well as improving the quality of life in our community. We also need to let the community be aware of their park and make usage of it by using the park for exercising, jogging and pleasure walks.
*donations to this project will be matched by a Partnerships for Parks grant of $750.
