Pancake Breakfast to Assist Single-Parent Families in Our Area!

Hello Friends! Please join us again at our Annual Pancake Breakfast Fundraiser to support Single Parents of New York, Inc. Our first fundraiser last year was a huge success because of the tremendous amount of support and generous donations. We hope to achieve the same goal this year as well and would love to see you all there! Tickets can be purchased ahead of time or at the door on the day of the event for a suggested donation price of $5.00/person. All proceeds will go towards single parent families in need. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact us. Your attendance and support is greatly appreciated!

2010 Putnam County Relay for Life

Thanks again to everyone who joined us yesterday at the 2010 Putnam County Relay for Life at Mahopac High School. We had a great time playing pick-up football, softball and wiffle ball as well as walking laps with cancer survivors, caregivers, volunteers and cancer fighters on all fronts!

Happy Holidays from SPNY, Inc.!!!

This holiday season, we were able to provide at least 21 kids in single parent families with gifts this year! We wouldn't have been able to provide these families with a more joyful holiday without your generous contributions and your support. THANK YOU AGAIN...We would like to share our work and achievements with you...

Your Donations Matter.

We received an email from Family Services of Westchester and she told us how each of the families enjoyed their Thanksgiving dinners. They were truly grateful for our gifts, and that would not be possible without your help! So thank you again for supporting us, the end result is a rewarding experience and we cannot thank you enough. THANK YOU!!!!

Be kinder than necessary. Everyone you meeting is fighting some kind of battle.

I am neither a single parent, nor do I live in the state of New York, but I am willing to stand up for a cause regardless of that. I believe in karma and that you should treat others the way you want to be treated. I think that if more people did that in our society, we would be living in a much nicer place. Unfortunately, that is not always the case and I've begun to learn more about human nature these past few weeks while working on our mission for SPNY, Inc.
