Gershow Recycling was a major sponsor of the KiDS NEED MoRE HoLiDAY CHEER BUS Elf Ride, which took place at the group’s headquarters in Amityville December 17. The company generously contributed $2,500 as a key supporter of this festive event.

Jonathan Abrams of Gershow Recycling addressed the crowd during the press conference. “These children have been through a lot in their lives and, today, we want to make this day a very special day for them,” he said. “I wish to commend everyone at KiDS NEED MoRE for the work that they do. This is an organization that truly performs miracles.”

KiDS NEED MoRE is renowned for its various programs aimed at enriching the lives of children and families facing life-threatening illnesses and traumatic interruptions of the normal childhood experience. Each year, since its inception in 2015, the HoLiDAY CHEER BUS Elf Ride has enlisted 1,000 volunteer elves who joyfully deliver gifts to 1,500 children in need across Long Island.
