☀️ Staying cool, active, and connected this summer!
 
With hot temperatures outside, older adults in our community are keeping cool and active at our East Side House Older Adult Centers. In partnership with NYC Department for the Aging each of our Older Adult Centers is classified as an official NYC Cooling Center for our members to beat the heat. While there, they participate in many different inclusive activities; from arts & crafts and bingo to billiards and Zumba classes, or if they choose to, they can just sit, relax, and socialize with each other. There is something for every member at our Older Adult Center this summer!

Learning is always worth celebrating! 🎉📚
At our Summer Learning Celebration, students in East Side House’s Summer Programs enjoyed an exciting day filled with hands-on STEAM activities, great food, and plenty of smiles, all while building the critical thinking and problem-solving skills that will help them succeed in the classroom and beyond.
Each student also headed home with a brand-new backpack filled with school supplies, ready to start the upcoming school year with confidence.
A special thank you to Councilmember Elsie Encarnacion for championing our community and helping make this event possible through her support of the backpack distribution. We also extend our gratitude to Lambert Treasures Events for transforming the space and A1 Food Depot for serving a delicious BBQ our students loved!
