Community Corner

Tommie Cares Foundation

I'd like to

introduce you to Tommie Cares Foundation (www.tommiecares.org) a new non-profit that helps children with

special needs build confidence and self-esteem through real-life adventures

like kayaking, stand up paddling, swimming, snow sports, and more with the help

of a team of community volunteers. 





 





We've got

two free events coming up soon in Westchester County: a Day on the Water at Rye

Playland on July 19th and a Day in the Water at Tibbetts Brook Park on August

22nd. Each event is free and just a half-day commitment. I'd love

your help in spreading the word to any children with special needs or

volunteers who might want to help. 

Find out what's happening in Larchmont-Mamaroneckwith free, real-time updates from Patch.
