FOSTER YOUR DREAM 8TH ANNUAL TOY DRIVE HUGE SUCCESS

Posted on by in Blog, Events

STAY TUNED FOR DROP OFF LOCATIONS FOR OUR 9TH ANNUAL 2023 TOY DRIVE!!!

Once again we rallied the toy-magical-givers and filled our toy boxes!

Thanks to Sandra Garni and Tim Dugger we were able to collect, inventory for ACS and deliver our bounty to kids who could use a smile ALL YEAR LONG.

We always collect during the Thanksgiving, Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa and New Year’s holiday time because that’s when folks enjoy giving. But our mission is to provide a smile and a happy moment when a child gets pulled out of his or her or their homes and folded in to child protective services!

It’s often scary and sad for them. We let them chose something to have when they get moved to a foster home. So THANK YOU.

Won’t you give next year!

THANKS to all who help. Including the staff at 36 West 44th street, Klotz and Gould, Mark Carson Selman, Brikener Jean Gilles, Gwendolyn Carroll, Tim Dugger, Sandra Garni.

Teknopolis Funopolis

Posted on by in Blog, Events

Sometimes the theatre things we rustle up are too “out there” for children who haven’t been exposed to much theatre.  So when we approached The Children’s Center we asked the recreation director, Timothy Dugger, to keep an eye on BAM’s website and let us know if his children wanted to participate in something.   He was excited about TEKNOPOLIS and we scored 12 tickets from Dewonnie Frederick!

Everyone had a blast and we poured a little science knowledge into our kids and got them out and about on a Saturday afternoon!

Good Hope and Good Fun

Bam’s production of A MAN OF GOOD HOPE by the South African Isango Ensemble invited FYD to experience the moving story of a child escaping war torn Somalia. Here is a little bit of what two sisters and three staff from ACS’s Children’s Center got to see:

Many thanks to Timothy Dugger who drove the girls to see the show, chaperoned them and tore them away from a night of television to experience something unique and different.
