Do You Have Old Barbies To Donate to Children Seeking Asylum with Their Family in NYC?
We saw this fantastic story on the news about Barbara Lakin, who was refurbishing old Barbie dolls to give to little girls who have arrived in NYC.
Barbara washes discarded Barbie dolls that she finds at yard sales or people donate. She fixes their hair and sews new outfits for the dolls.
Then she wraps the dolls in a cellophane bag and puts a hair tie at the top of the bag. The Little Shop of Kindness helps give out the dolls to the children. (Story here)
Barbara Lakin remarked that she wished she could give the girls Barbies that looked like them (most of the dolls she had were blonde).
If you have any Barbie dolls or accessories for the doll that you want to donate, you can send it to this address:
Amazon has Barbies for around $10, so you can still participate if you want to!

Bay Ridge Author: Aisha Abdel Gawad
Aisha Abdel Gawad wrote the book, Between Two Moons.
This story is about an Arab American family in Bay Ridge during the month of Ramadan. She discusses the book in this video.
The main characters are first generation high school graduates that have to deal with their own problems and also problems like surveillance in their community.
It sounds like an interesting book that many young women would enjoy reading!

Baci Ristorante is Closed For Renovations
We were sad to hear that Baci Ristorante on 3rd Avenue and 85th Street in Bay Ridge has closed.
The inside of the restaurant is redone (even though it’s pretty).
Update: We asked the workers and they told us that this restaurant will no longer be Baci. It will have a new name, but the same type of cuisine. The owner remains the same.
Baci was busy during the Summer Stroll on Friday and they had a DJ.
Baci Lovers, while you are waiting, you can enjoy Baci in Staten Island:

Update: NO. Is a Tent City Coming to Calvert Vaux Park?
UPDATE:
Councilman Ari Kagan shared that the Mayor’s office plans to put a tent city at Calvert Vaux Park in Gravesend. That’s the park that is after Adventurers Amusement Park (Nellie Bly) and before Home Depot at Cropsey Avenue.
Kagan opposes the use of the park for the migrants because families are using it now, but the Mayor’s staff is having a hard time finding room for the migrants.
See the tent city at Randall’s Island.
Federal places like Floyd Bennett Field or the Army Base have a lot of room, but I don’t think they have permission to use them.

Stabbed at Church Avenue on Saturday Night
The two men pictured above are wanted by the police.
A 39-year-old man was stabbed on a Q train approaching the Church Avenue station in Kensington at 11:20 pm on Saturday night.
The victim was brought to the hospital and is expected to be alright.
Why are these guys wanted by the police wearing sweatshirts and jackets on the hottest night of the Summer?
