Helping Hands and New Beginnings Ministry on Staten Island are collecting school supply donations for families of homeless women and victims of domestic violence. Supplies for students of all ages are still desperately needed for this year. If you would like to make a donation please drop supplies to Senator Lanza's office in Eltingville (3845 Richmond Ave., Suite 2A) or to the New Beginnings Ministry (731 Henderson Ave., 10310). Thank you in advance for your generosity.
