Coney Island Prep helps feed families for Thanksgiving
Teens in Coney Island really brought home the turkey this Thanksgiving.
Helping to feed more than 100 local families this year, eight Coney Island Prep students took to the Coney Island YMCA on Tuesday, November 24 to hand out canned goods and 100 donated turkeys.
“We are proud to partner with our community’s outstanding young people to bring nourishing meals to Coney Island residents,” said Johanna Zaki, executive director of the Alliance for Coney Island—a collaborative of independent attractions, businesses and organizations in the area. “At this time of year, it is especially important to remember those among our community who could use a helping hand.”
