Franklin Lakes Teen Organizes Gift Drive for Needy

IHA student's drive collected toys at the Woodside Avenue School, and through social media.

Nicole Christopoul, a Junior at Immaculate Heart Academy, organized a Salvation Army Angel Tree Program in Franklin Lakes.  

Families at Woodside Avenue School along with moms from the Franklin Lakes Moms Facebook group purchased holiday gifts for 100 children in need.  The gifts will be delivered to the Salvation Army in Hackensack and then distributed to families who have signed up to be part of the program.
