Common Cents Executive Director Teddy Gross announced that help is on the way for thousands of the city’s neediest citizens, and that help will come from thousands of the city’s tiniest citizens.


Nearly a half million New York City children raised an estimated $650,826.70 in this fall’s 15th Annual Common Cents Penny Harvest, the most triumphant regular harvest ever. Pupils from 767 of the city’s 1,110 primary and middle schools participated, and they will now spend the winter deciding how to distribute their funds.
