December 14, 2012 - The Moment of Thanks Toy Drive benefitting
CORA services in the lower Northeast section of the city has
concluded and has been a huge success. Almost 700 toys were
collected, far exceeding the challenge of 500 toys issued by Dean
JoAnne Epps. Congratulations and thanks to all who
contributed to the effort!
The toys will be distributed through CORA, a nonprofit
organization that provides education, counseling, therapy, and
guidance to more than 16,000 children and families experiencing
emotional, academic, and social challenges. All toys will go to
benefit needy families in the lower Northeast section of the city
(Frankford/Juniata/Bridesburg/Northwood). The drive was
coordinated in partnership with Kim Washington '09, who works for
CORA.
