Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens’s 7th Annual Kids Fun Day in Astoria, Queens, on August 7th, generated lots of attention for all its fun activities and community outreach! Hundreds of community residents came out to enjoy this exciting day of fun activities to gain important resources on health and safety.
This event is held annually in block-party fashion with enjoyable stations for the entire family. Attendees receive free, limited drawstring bags filled with school supplies as well as other cool giveaways and healthy snacks. Activities included music and dancing, arts and crafts, a bounce house, and much more!
