The Kindness Crew works in partnership with the Clarkstown Family Resource Center with the goal of students helping students. Their biggest priority is giving back to the community and helping students who need extra support.
The Kindness Crew supports the Clarkstown Family Resource Center (CFRC) by fundraising and in hundreds of hours of volunteer work. This month, Kindness Crew held a spirit-wear collection drive and recently announced their Thanksgiving food drive to help Clarkstown students and families who are in need. Truly, these students know and care about others, providing them with their needs as temperatures drop and holidays begin.

This month, the Kindness Crew led the “Strike Out Hunger” event on October 18 where all proceeds went to buying grocery and food gift cards for families.

As always, the Kindness Crew would love new members and needs the support of students to continue running. Join these amazing and creative Clarkstown North students in reaching their goal to help eliminate hunger in our community on their usual meeting days (Wednesday right afterschool) or during the volunteer events they hold, usually on Fridays or the weekend.
