Description of Event |
On Saturday,
October 22nd, New York Texas Exes will
be joining thousands of volunteers to
revitalize more than 100 New York City
public schools. During the 14th Annual
New York Cares Day, we will reorganize
libraries; work in technology centers;
clean up playgrounds; paint murals and
line games; and make our schools
brighter, cleaner, and happier--efforts
that have an enormous impact, creating
positive learning environments for
children.
New York
Cares Day is a serve-a-thon and is New
York Cares' largest fundraiser. As in a
walk-a-thon, participants raise pledges
from friends, family, and co-workers in
honor of the time we spend volunteering.
The money we raise helps to cover the
cost of the day and to support the
thousands of other volunteer projects
New York Cares plans throughout the
year. The more money we raise, the more
work that can be done for New York
City's communities. We're asking all
NYTE volunteers to contribute at least
$5 toward the cost of the New York Cares
t-shirts.
