Costumes for Kids Halloween costume drive
Remember when Halloween was just for kids? Well, it still is! This month, you can help make a Halloween memory for a needy child when you donate a costume (or two!) to The Floating Hospital’s Costumes for Kids drive.
Until October 22, you can drop off a costume at our clinic. We’ll distribute costumes in our community center on October 22 — just in time for thrills, chills and candy corn.
Details: new or gently-used costumes in an assortment of sizes: girls, boys, gender-neutral, ages 4 to 10.
Drop off: The Floating Hospital, 21-01 41st Avenue. Long Island City, NY 11101, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., until October 22
