SERVING SUNNYSIDE-WOODSIDE AND LONG ISLAND CITY

WOODSIDE YOUTHRETURN AGAIN

by David Rosasco

As it was becoming clear thatmore work to fully clean 38th Av-enue would be required due to theenormous volume of garbagedumped between 54th and 57th

streets, the youth, rather than beingdiscouraged over the seemingly

ceaseless effort required to restorethis location to order, their thoughtswere summed up clearly by AlexisMorales, 7th grade student at St.Sebastian School, emphasizing“It’s amazing how much we cleanedup already, and we know what toexpect the next time anyway.”

HELP EVERY AMERICAN CHILDSTART FINANCIAL FUTURE

Rep. Joe Crowley (D-Queens,the Bronx), Vice Chair of the Demo-cratic Caucus, and Rep. Keith Ellison(D-MN) announced the introductionof legislation to help hard-workingAmerican families build savings fortheir future. The Crowley-Ellisonlegislation builds on their earlier ef-forts and will create a new savingsprogram called USAccounts, a long-term savings account to help everyAmerican child start their financialfuture on the right foot. The bill alsoauthorizes an expansion of the suc-cessful Child Tax Credit in order togive low-income families the oppor-tunity to contribute to the savingsaccount. The USAccounts bill is thefirst part of Crowley’s “BuildingBetter Savings, Building BrighterFutures” plan to address the savingsand retirement crisis in America.

“We know Americans want tosave, and they know they shouldsave – but the reality is, for manyfamilies, putting aside money whilemeeting immediate needs isn’t justdifficult, it’s impossible,” said Rep.Crowley. “Saving has to start onday one, and our legislation willgive every American child the toolsand knowledge they need to starttheir financial future on the rightfoot. USAccounts will help put theability to save back in reach formillions of American families andtheir children.”

“With millions of hard workingAmericans finding it harder andharder just to get by, many struggleto put aside savings for themselvesand their children. WithUSAccounts, we can help childrendo better in school, increase their

likelihood to attend college and en-able them to succeed in life. I ap-plaud Mr. Crowley for taking thelead on comprehensive asset-build-ing legislation to enable families theopportunity to build a nest egg,”said Rep. Ellison.

The Crowley-Ellison legisla-tion directs the U.S. Department ofthe Treasury to create a new sav-ings program called USAccounts.USAccounts will be funded througha combination of federal seedmoney, matching funds, and fam-ily contributions.

Upon the birth of a child, aUSAccount will be established inthe child’s name, and the federalgovernment will contribute $500 inseed money the first year. The child’sfamily will be allowed to deposit upto $2,000 into the account annually.For families at the lowest incomelevels, these contributions will bematched dollar-for-dollar by the gov-ernment up to $500 per USAccount,per year, directly into the child’sUSAccount. In addition, to aid fami-lies who want to save, yet havetrouble getting started putting moneytoward their child’s USAccount, thelegislation includes another matchthrough the Child Tax Credit. Fami-lies who are eligible for either theChild Tax Credit or the AdditionalChild Tax Credit and make a contri-bution to their child’s account willreceive another matching amount,up to $500 annually per account, asan increase in their credit when theyfile their taxes the following year.

While USAccounts will be es-tablished through the Treasury De-partment, parents will have the op-

tion of keeping the account withinthe government or moving it to anapproved financial services institu-tion. Contributions in these accountscan later be withdrawn tax-free tofund higher education. Once the childis no longer a dependent, the fundswill be rolled over to an IRA, provid-ing an opportunity to continue tosave for retirement, or to access fundspenalty- and tax-free when needed topay for medical expenses, buy ahome, or start a small business.

Based on legislation first intro-duced by Crowley and Ellison in2014, under this bill the funds in theaccount will invest in U.S. treasur-ies, ensuring a safe investment thatwon’t go down in value. Addition-ally, this legislation improves theInternal Revenue Service outreachon the Earned Income Tax Credit(EITC), by requiring the IRS, whenprocessing tax returns, to determinewhich taxpayers are owed the EITCbut are not claiming it. The IRS wouldprocess the EITC on the family’sbehalf and then deposit these earnedfunds into the child’s USAccount.

The bill is supported by the AssetBuilding Program, New America andCorporation for Enterprise Develop-ment (CFED).

Announced in April, Crowley’s“Building Better Savings, BuildingBrighter Futures” plan will makeAmericans more financially securethroughout their lifetimes by creat-ing new financial options that en-courage personal saving, expandingemployer-provided retirement plans,and strengthening Social Security.Crowley released a detailed blue-print for the plan.

DANCE OFF! STARS ALIGN FOR THE KIDS(continued from front page)

On Saturday night, November 7th,the music blared through the streets ofLong Island City as a crowd gatheredto support the Variety Boys and GirlsClub in their sixth annual “Dancingwith the Community Stars” fundraiser.

Founded in 1955, the Club hasprovided Western Queens with a phe-nomenal after school program, whosemission is “To provide children of allbackgrounds with the skills and abili-ties that will develop in them the quali-ties of self-esteem and self-confidence,which are needed to become respon-sible citizens and leaders.” Every dayover 150 multicultural children enterthe building, and are provided with ahot meal, a safe and supportive envi-ronment, and a broad range of youthprograms in the areas of personal andeducational development, citizenshipand leadership development, culturalenrichment, health and physical edu-cation, and social recreation.

Two months before the event, lo-cal celebrities were paired with volun-teer professional dancers in order tohave them practice and learn a danceroutine to be performed on the night ofthe fundraiser. In addition to the dona-tion of rehearsal time, each celebrityregistered sponsors who helped themraise money for both the Variety Boysand Girls Club of Queens and a charityof their choice.

The competition runs similarly tothe Dancing with the Stars TV showthat airs on television. It is judged bya three member judging panel, whoprovide their expert feedback to eachcouple’s performance. This year theClub was lucky to have three commu-nity leaders serve as judges:Wellington Lora, Jr., Tina Williams,and Ralph Trionfo.

Guests enjoyed a buffet of deli-ciously cooked food and horsd’oeuvres provided by the one andonly Long Island Gourmet, located inMineola, and anxiously awaited the

performances they look forward toeach year. The couples glided acrossthe floor performing dances in theareas of tango, salsa and theatre jazz,and waited for their results from thejudges. When the results were in,Andrew Mungo and Frank Perez wonfirst place with their outstanding waltzroutine. The judges’ choice for bestperformance was awarded to JasonBanrey and Ella Rosewood for theirincredible dance mix.

A special addition to this year’sprogram of events was special guestperformances by Lorenz Latin DanceStudio, and Precise Dance Studio, whoselflessly donated their time and talentto this magnificent event.

“This event was ground break-ing,” said Executive Director, Mat-thew Troy, with its ability to bringtogether the talent and generosity ofmembers from all over, including theSunnyside/Woodside Communities,and the Long Island City/Astoria com-munities. Vincent Renda, sharedabout the recent marriage of theSunnyside/Woodside Unit with theVariety Boys and Girls Club, who arenow administering all programs inthe Sunnyside Community.

Hon. Governor Andrew M. Cuomosaid, “I thank those friends and bene-factors in the audience for their gener-ous support which makes it possiblefor Variety’s dedicated staff and won-derful volunteers to continue inspiringboys and girls, guiding them in a posi-tive direction and encouraging them totake advantage of a world filled withlimitless possibilities.”

Hon. Council Member Jimmy VanBramer said, “I applaud all of this year’sparticipants and I especially want tocongratulate my Deputy Chief of StaffJason Banrey for pulling off both adaring and exciting performance thatwowed the crowd. He took this experi-ence very seriously and showed a stead-fast commitment to raising money for

both the Variety Boys & Girls Cluband Hour Children. Once again theVariety Boys & Girls Club put togetheranother successful community event.Together all of this year’s participantshave made a difference in our commu-nity by helping raise essential fundingthat will benefit children, youth andfamilies throughout Western Queens.”

The crowd, volunteers and par-ticipants had an awesome time rais-ing money for the Boys and GirlsClub, which will guarantee a fullrange of programs for the kids of theWestern Queens Community for thecoming year.

Manny Gomez, president of thegroup, says that plans are afoot to“expand the fair and have more of-ten, but keep the local and hand-made criteria” which sets it apartfrom other fairs.Few are able to make a living mak-ing things by hand and participantsare often part-time creative whoenjoy making and displaying thingsfor love, and happy to have otherswanting to see and perhaps buy work– but rarely does compensation ap-proach the labor and time put in.

Michael Gurrado carved wood,Ann Cofta made hand blocked silkscarves, Catherine Penfold paintedcharacters on handbags, MaryCaulfield crocheted pins, andBonita Kline, Sheila Ross andRehndell Masi worked with clay.Painters Jeffrey Watson, DougAhammer and Amanda Barkershowed work. First time exhibitorGregory Psitos who can also befound at Sunnyside Florist, offeredwhimsical air plant dioramas. SofiaColborn also used air plants andexhibited with Rebecca Wilkins.Don Soules showed photographs,and Mustafa Yasar his ebru waterpainting. Warm scarves were avail-able from Una Studdert, and tinyart assemblages from EmilyDunne. Mary Caulfield crochetedpins, and Alexio Gessa, a body-building champion, displayed hiscomic drawn posters.

Many missed volunteersFrances Schmidt who was underthe weather, and Ona Whitman,who have signed in all guests at artevents signs since 2007. DeirdreFeerick stepped in for security chiefDonald McCallian, also not feel-ing well. Also to be deeply thankedare Ana Gomez, MaryAnnGurrado, Melissa Orlando, Rich-ard Drake, Juan Rodriguez, JosephSchmucker, Joseph Gurrado,Carmen Cruz, Dorothy Morehead,Alejandro Zapata, Osanna Ladino,Mitch Waxman, Carol Mussi, Pe-ter Wing and Jose Ladino. FatherBrian Dowd of Queen of Angelschurch kindly hosts the fair as acommunity outreach. MannyGomez said, “We were able topresent the food pantries with $438this year, 25% of artists table fees.”

Gomez, who in addition toorganization and getting littlesleep, prepares food for Patron ofthe Arts Café said, “We like tofeed people at low cost to keeppeople here for awhile to see ourgreat artists.”Generous merchants helped makethe day a success, includingSherilyn Jo Sabba, WoodsideHerald, Lowery Wine & Liquors,Gina of Sole Luna, Grace Wu of

Pinframing, Cassie of Artist &Craftsman Supply, M. AsimSarfraz, MD of Family Pharmacy,Maria Calderon of Paper PlusPrinting, Tony & Leena Tang ofthe UPS Store, Sunnysidepost,and Juan Arache of theSugarroom, Rigoberto Cardosoof Pronto Car Service.

opening of the new $45 million Woodsideschool is a milestone in Council MemberVan Bramer’s efforts to help add over2,600 school seats for children in WesternQueens schools.

These expectations are what have pow-ered the youth time after time over longyears, as they assembled Saturday, Novem-ber 14 for multiple projects that began withthe cleaning and weeding operations along38th Avenue, but inevitably moved onto otherlocations for other work after significantprogress was made.

The youth proceed west along this roadto 52nd Street to repaint a section of theretaining wall to conform with the wall thatruns perpendicular along 54 Street belowthe Long Island Rail Road.

From there, the youth reassembled inlarge numbers for yet another large-scalegraffiti removal project along 58th Street justnorth of 48th Avenue, deploying all of thepaint donated generously by JosephMcGowan Sr. that resulted in a one of thelast areas in the entire zip code where graffitiat such as scale remained.
