Brooklyn Young Republicans Pull Double Duty This Holiday Season By Conducting Successful Food & Toy Drives
This month, the Brooklyn
Republican Party and the Brooklyn Young Republicans ran two joint holiday
drives – a toy drive to benefit the children of Soldiers in the NY National
Guard and a food drive for families in need for the Basilica of Regis Pacis in Brooklyn.
Throughout December, the
Brooklyn Young Republicans have done double duty collecting non-perishable food
for families in need and conducting a toy drive at the same time. “The
response to both of our drives has been fantastic,” said Diana Sepulveda,
President of the Brooklyn Young Republicans. “Both drives exceeded my
expectations.”
This past week, Diana
Sepulveda delivered toys to the children of Soldiers of the NY National Guard 1-258th
Field Artillery Unit as part of the Brooklyn Young Republicans’ joint toy drive
with the Brooklyn Republican Party. This week, Diana Sepulveda will be
dropping off the non-perishable food collected at Regina Pacis.
“Delivering those toys
to so many smiling faces was a thrill I will never forget”, said Sepulveda.
“This is the season of giving, and I am glad to be able to bring some joy
to those who need a little happiness this time of year.”
Brooklyn Republican
Chair Craig Eaton was happy to support these initiatives. “Diana is a
true leader of our younger generation of Republicans, who have genuinely shown
that they care about their community. I am happy to support them in all
they do.”
