CRYSTAL RUN HEALTHCARE DONATES HUNDREDS OF BACKPACKS AND SCHOOL SUPPLIES TO STUDENTS IN LOCAL COMMUNITIES

August 20, 2022 – For the past sixteen years, Crystal Run Healthcare has helped provide local students with the supplies necessary for them to succeed in the upcoming school year. This year, Crystal Run employees purchased hundreds of backpacks and various school supplies to be donated to families throughout Sullivan, Orange, and Rockland Counties, through ongoing partnerships with the Town of Wallkill Boys and Girls Clubs, Newburgh Armory Unity Center, and People to People in Rockland County.

Staff from Crystal Run Healthcare first began purchasing school supplies for donation to charities back in 2007 and, in 2011, began working with the Boys and Girls Clubs. This is the sixth year that the practice has worked with People to People’s ‘Back to School with Dignity’ program in Rockland. The school supply drive is one of the many philanthropic programs that the employees of Crystal Run Healthcare participate in and support in order to give back to the local communities.

“The challenges of 2022 didn’t stop our employees from giving back to our community. We hope the donations of backpacks and school supplies give children and parents throughout the Hudson Valley one less thing to worry about this school year. We are grateful to have the opportunity to give back and provide children the tools they need to succeed in school,” said Tara Kammarada, Director of Human Resources at Crystal Run Healthcare.
