Support Local Schools PS 217 & PS 139’s Good Causes This Weekend

Here are a few ways to support two of our local schools holding events for good causes this weekend.

PS 217’s Parent’s Association is holding a fundraiser concert this Saturday, November 17  at 773 Lounge on Coney Island Avenue starting at 8pm. A $20 suggested donation will support the arts at PS 217 and get you your first drink on the house. You’ll hear The Hordanos and Alegba & Friends, two Brooklyn bands out to support the school.

Also on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. a blood drive is taking place at PS 139 in the first flood auditorium. You can sign up here. A clothing swap will take place on the same day from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the same location. The swap is an annual event in which people bring gently used clothes and take what they can use.
