Luna Park thrill seekers raise money for teen program
Thrill seekers who enjoyed a day of rides in Coney Island’s famous Luna Park helped raise more than $100,000 for a Brooklyn charity that helps teenagers whose parents are incarcerated.
The owners of Luna Park visited the headquarters of Children of Promise, NYC in Bed-Stuy on Thursday to present a $107,000 check to the organization for its teen programs.
The donation stems from Luna Park’s Second Annual Charity Day in which patrons donated $10 per person in exchange for free rides on the amusement park’s opening day in April.
