Liberty City is a charitable 501c3 organization set up to enable Liberty Church to meet needs in their local neighborhoods. As New Yorkers, it’s hard to miss the needs of the people all around us, and Liberty City has been involved with many opportunities to work in the community helping others, through food pantries, Hurricane Sandy relief, clothing drives, rebuilding damaged areas of our cities and supporting other community based organizations making a difference for people overcoming challenging cirumstances.
Liberty City Brooklyn will be throwing a Back to School Festival at Public School 67 in Brooklyn for students ages 5–12. Many of the students live in the inner city housing projects, and we will be able to provide them with needed supplies and a day of festivities to encourage and equip students for the new school year and a hope and a future.
Please partner with us by sponsoring a child in need with a backpack full of school and hygiene supplies and a Back to School Festival with games, activities, and food to kick off the new school year. Through the generosity of organizations, we have been able to bring sponsorship costs to ONLY $20 a child and together we can reach our goal of sponsoring 120 children. Please help us to achieve this by sponsoring one or more children before our event on Friday August 21st, at PS 67 @ 51 St. Edwards St, Brooklyn, NY.
