Following the tremendous support for our Do Good December initiative, we’ll be collecting donations for the whole month of January in support of a local organization that does work keeping children safe and families together—The Children’s Village.

Founded in 1851 and located in Dobbs Ferry, The Children’s Village services the foster care population and their families around Westchester. HudCo is collecting donations to support these foster families as they care for the children in the CV programs.

They are asking for new or lightly used (and clean) kitchen and dining items such as:

  • dishes
  • silverware
  • cups
  • pots and pans
  • cooking utensils

Drop off at the front desk of HudCo during office hours Monday through Friday, 9am to 6pm. We’ll collect all month long, please reach out with any specific questions.

The ultimate goal of the CV programs is to prepare youth to be successful as adults. To that end, they track educational success, work experience, family reunification, housing stability, avoidance of arrests, and other measures that indicate how well youth are achieving goals. Following are some of their recent outcomes:
