Knicks star Enes Kanter visits kids in Bushwick shelter
Children living in a Bushwick shelter got to see a professional basketball player up close when New York Knicks center Enes Kanter came to visit them for a back-to-school event last week.
Kanter delivered backpacks filled with school supplies to the kids living in the SCO Family of Services’ Flushing Family Residence as part of the shelter’s First Annual Back-to-School Community Fair.
SCO Family of Services, a Manhattan-based nonprofit organization, sponsors the shelter at 1226 Flushing Ave. in Bushwick.
