Bags packed at YOSS with supplies for kids in need

Hundreds of volunteers — including 6-year-old Michael Fuld — assembled 750 school-supply-filled backpacks last Wednesday at Yeshiva of South Shore in Hewlett, during the seventh annual Long Island Tov B’Yachad Supplies for Success event organized by UJA-Federation of New York.

The donation-filled backpacks assembled at YOSS will be given to students in need at local yeshivas.

As many as 11,000 backbacks will be distributed throughout the metro New York area through UJA-Federation beneficiary agencies and yeshivas.
