The Westchester County Continuum of Care (CoC) would like to send a big thank you to all of those who participated in VolunteerNY’s MLK Day of Service at Iona College this past Saturday.

Over 100 care packages were assembled for distribution to people experiencing unsheltered homelessness during Westchester County’s annual HUD Point-In-Time Count on January 24th, 2019.

Care packages included: a pair of winter gloves, a winter hat, water, granola bar, lip balm, a toothbrush and toothpaste, and a hand-written note of encouragement.
