To help elementary-school children start the new school year on the right foot, Nassau County Legislator Ellen W. Birnbaum (D-Great Neck) is teaming up with the Manhasset-Lakeville Water-Fire District to sponsor a back-to-school supply drive.

Donors can drop off supplies from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on weekend days from Aug. 13 through Aug. 28 at the Manhasset-Lakeville Water-Fire District Office, 170 East Shore Road, Great Neck, N.Y. 11021.

Requested supplies include: backpacks, notebooks, No. 2 pencils, colored pencils, colored markers, crayons, and glue sticks.

“As the summer months wind down and plans for the new school year approach, it is especially important to ensure every child is equipped to thrive in the classroom,” Legislator Birnbaum said. “I am proud to once again sponsor this school supply drive with the Manhasset-Lakeville Water-Fire District and thank residents in advance for their generosity and support.”
