It’s
HAPPENING in Co-op City!
CCPD Annual Holiday Toy Drive
Food Pantry/Fridge Grateful to Serve Co-op City Community in 2023
Did you know that even though it was the final Saturday of 2023, the Food/Pantry volunteers ended the year with grateful hearts distributing fresh produce to shareholders in Section 5 next to the Mosholu Montefiore Teen Center. Remember, we continue to always welcome volunteers for the Saturday produce parties in the coming new year of 2024. Sign up at coopcitycommunityfridge@ gmail.com. With grateful hearts, we wish you a very healthy New Year! See you at the fridge with open arms! ––Yolanda Ramirez Photos by Antionette Erskin
Our 2023 Toy Drive was a smashing success. This event gets bigger and better every year, thanks to shareholders’ generosity. We visited three shelters, and the expressions on faces were priceless. The Officers who organized, sorted, delivered and distributed the hundreds of gifts were P.O. Vargas, P.O. Cavigliano, P.O. Alicea and Det. Grosvenor (not pictured). Huge shout-out, once again, to Bartow Stationary, for their incredible donation of over 350 toys. —–Lt. C. Bulat Photos by Det. S. Grosvenor
