JLB is an organization of women committed to promoting volunteerism, developing the potential of women, and improving the community through effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. The Dorm Drive is one of many cutting edge programs JLB has created to improve the lives of women, children, families, and the elderly in our community.
YPIE partners with students across the Yonkers Public Schools to ensure that hundreds of low income, but high-promise students are prepared for college success. Many of these students lack the financial resources to purchase basic dorm essentials.
At this year's event held at the YPIE College Zone in downtown Yonkers, YPIE college bound Scholars received beautiful rolling luggage, a bag of thoughtful gifts, and gift cards to Bed, Bath, and Beyond so they can stock up on their dorm supplies. Thanks to JLB, these students will step onto campus this fall with the dorm room items they need.
YPIE is very grateful to JLB for helping us to celebrate the impressive accomplishments of our YPIE students and their exciting paths to college success.
