Directbuy of Brooklyn & Queens Donates Foosball Table to Boys & Girls Club of Queens
Based on the reaction to DirectBuy of Brooklyn & Queens donation of a brand new foosball table to the Salah M. Hassanein Variety Boys and Girls Club of Queens, the game is still a hit with today’s youth—and their parents.
Made by one of the finest foosball manufacturers, the regulation-size foosball table retails for around $600. DirectBuy of Brooklyn & Queens Co-owner Michael Wiseltier delivered the table to the Salah M. Hassanein Variety Boys & Girls Club, located at 21-12 30th Road, Long Island City, NY, to the excited children who eagerly awaited its delivery.
“To us, being a member of the business community here in Queens also means being a member of the community in general, just like our members,” said Wiseltier. “So when we make a donation to a place like the Boys & Girls Clubs, we’re not only helping out a worthwhile cause, but one that probably benefits our members, their families and their friends and neighbors, and that’s always worthwhile.”
The Salah M. Hassanein Variety Boys & Girls Club is a non-profit organization that depends on the generosity and financial support of the community to help it fulfill its commitment to enriching the lives of individuals, strengthening families and building inclusive communities.
“We have a large group of kids that come to our activity center everyday, so we are always in search of new activities for the them,” said Muhamed Oukacine, unit director of the Boys & Girls Club in Queens."DirectBuy's generous donation of the foosball table makes our activity center that much more of a draw for school-age children and their families. Young people need to know that people care about them and DirectBuy has shown them that.”
The mission of the Salah M. Hassanein Variety Boys & Girls Club is to provide children of all backgrounds with the skills and abilities that will develop in them the qualities of self-esteem and self-confidence, which are needed to become responsible citizens and leaders. Open during the summer and after-school, the activity center offers a range of fun and safe activities from sports, theater and nutrition to leadership, drug prevention and photography.
