The 2022 WJCS Back-to-School Drive has concluded and we’re happy to report that it’s been a big success! Through the generosity of WJCS donors and our non-profit partners, UJA Westchester and Supplies for Success, we have been able to help 1,300 children in under-resourced communities in Westchester, start school equipped for a successful academic year.

We have supplied young children in WJCS programs with brand new backpacks and school supplies, plus a $20 gift card to purchase a new first-day-of-school outfit. Thanks to Order Out of Chaos for donating school year planners which are being distributed to our tween and teen clients, along with a $40 gift certificate for new clothing.

Thank to everyone who supported this year’s Back-to-School Drive!
