Pct. Collection Drive to Help Foster Kids

By QNS Editorial Posted on November 27, 2014

The 112th Precinct Community Council, with the help of the 112th Precinct, recently helped give suitcases to foster children so they do not have to move their possessions in black garbage bags. The effort was called the Cases for Kids project, and neighbors in the community made the donations, 112th Precinct Council President Heidi Harrison Chain said. The project was coordinated with the Rego Park/Forest Hills Lions Club, the 112th Precinct and precinct council who all collected suitcases and backpacks to give to foster children. Pictured are 112th Precinct Capt. Judith Harrison and Chain with the suitcases and backpacks that were collected.
