A member of a  newly formed Park Slope group — tentatively titled
Park Slope Bridge to Change — sent me info about a school book and school
supply drive on Martin Luther King Day, as part of the Obama
Transition's National Call to Service.

The group plans to actively man two
locations (the Coop and the Community Book Store on 7th Avenue) from
10 am until 4 pm on Monday January, 19th, with drop boxes at other locations.

The collected items will be donated to P.S.
41 in Brownsville, Brooklyn, a K-8 school that Congressman Yvette
Clarke's office recommended to us as being in need of assistance.

The event page for this group is on the Obama: usaservice.org.
