Shul members responded generously to the CAST (Community Action Southold Town) request a few months ago for personal items, including infant and child necessities.  Many thanks to all who participated.

Now, the need is for school supplies, especially backpacks for our local kids. And to fill those backpacks, CAST is suggesting donations of calculators, colored pencils, composition books, crayons, dividers, dry erase markers, erasers, folders, glue/glue sticks, graph paper, highlighters, index cards, loose leaf binders/paper, markers, paperclips, pencil boxes/cases, pencil sharpeners, pencils, pens, post-its, protractors, rulers, scissors, spiral notebooks and USB flash drives.

Because our shul is currently closed, you can deliver your donations to the CAST office at 316 Front Street, Greenport, or any of the following locations: local libraries, local banks, Mullen Motors, Fitness Advantage, The Giving Room, Greenport Harbor Brewing Co., Southold Town Hall, Staples. Be sure to call before delivering as hours are irregular, and closings are possible.

CAST’s School Supply Drive ends on August 19. Thank you for participating.
