Nonprofits to Volunteer With This Holiday Season

Feeling generous this holiday season? The following five local nonprofit organizations in Westchester County can help you give back. 

1. Operation Prom 

Donate used dresses or tuxes to Operation Prom, who will give them out to high schoolers around America. Not every student may be able to afford a $300 dress or a tux rental, but they should at least be able to afford the memories. 

2. Pass It On Kid's Kloset

Pass It On Kid's Closet has joined up with the Westchester Jewish Community Services (WJCS) to provide new and gently-used children's clothes to Westchester families. Vounteer your time by helping prepare bags full of folded complete and matching outfits for children. 

3. Grace Church Community Center

At Grace Church Community Center, you can serve food to the hungry, become a sponsor and role model for at-risk youth or volunteer your time to the homeless.

4. Westchester County's Department of Social Services

The Westchester County's Department of Social Services is hosting a gift drive for local children, foster children and residential centers. Stop by your local county office to donate to collections boxes open to the public. 

5. Family-to-Family

Participants can assemble care packages of household and personal necessities such as clothing, kitchen objects and toiletries for impoverished families nationwide.
