Staff members want to hear from residents of all ages of the Greenburgh community how daily life has been impacted and transformed by this global pandemic.

Please share in writing, drawing, photos, or videos describing your experiences about what has happened to you this year.  This is our moment as a community to remember how we all endured this virus and how we persevered.
