Stuff for the Teen Age

Kingsbridge TAG Update: We’re Starting an iPod Drive!

Do you have a gently-used iPod that you'd like to donate to a good cause? Because the Kingsbridge Library's Teen Advisory Group is going to be collecting used iPods on behalf of the Music & Memory program.

Music & Memory is an organization that uses iPods to create personalized playlists for the elderly and infirm, helping to improve their quality of life. You can learn more about how this program works at the Music & Memory website, where you can see videos that show how people's spirits can be lifted by the music from their past.

If you'd like to donate an iPod to the cause, from March 22nd through May 31st you can bring your donations to the Kingsbridge Library [291 W. 231st Street, Bronx NY 10463]. Our donation drive will begin with a kickoff event on Friday March 22nd at 4pm. Any iPods that are collected through our drive will be used by the residents at the Kingsbridge Heights Rehabilitation and Care Center.

If you'd like to learn more about the Music & Memory program, including how the program works, how to volunteer, and how to donate iPods if you can't make it to our drive, please visit musicandmemory.org.
