    Giving back to the community is part of being a leader.  For that reason, our club is active in a myriad of activities throughout the year.  
     
    UNYTS Blood Drive at Kenton
    Kenton is holding a blood drive to benefit the Upstate New York Transplant Services on Monday November 28. Students 16 and older are eligible to participate.  ALL students MUST submit a permission slip to donate. 
     
    According to UNYTS each donation saves up to three lives!  We had a successful drive last year, and hope to exceed that number of donations this year.

    Gilda's Club
    Each year the culinary department in all 3 Erie 1 BOCES Career  Centers are asked to create gingerbread houses to donate to the Gingerbread...Gifts...Glitz fundraiser Gilda's Club has at the end of November.  In support, each year teachers Tina Fago and Lauren Sikora from Harkness, and Meghan Finamore from Kenton,  also create gingerbread houses and enter them in the professional division.  Updated pictures will be coming soon!

    Toys for Tots
    Erie 1 BOCES has participated in Toys for Tots the last few years; a toy drive sponsored and run by the US Marines.  New toys and games are collected and given to children in need in our area.  The club as well as faculty and staff are all excited to participate in this great charitable effort once again!
