Toys 2 Discover Sponsors Shopping Spree for Children of Murdered NYPD Officer

Toys 2 Discover Sponsors Shopping Spree for Children of Murdered NYPD Officer

By M. C. Millman

Boro Park’s Toys 2 Discover on 55th Street and 18th Avenue opened its doors and heart on Thursday night to the two children of fallen Officer Adeed Fayaz, a five-year veteran of the NYPD and officer at the 66 Precinct in Boro Park.

Despite the extremely busy erev-Purim season, Yonoson Schwartz put a hold on business as usual and instead looked to the business of helping heal the hearts of the two young children by inviting them into his store to shop gratis. The store was closed to shoppers, so the two recently bereaved children, accompanied by NYPD officers, were able to fill an entire shopping cart with any toy they desired. 

Before the children walked off with an entire shopping cart of toys, they had another exciting experience when an entire group of NYPD upper brass, electeds, and Shomrim paid a visit to the store after their pre-Purim community safety visit arranged by Assemblyman Simcha Eichenstein. 

The visitors also showered the children with attention and assisted them in making the best selection – which wasn’t hard in the aisles jampacked with exciting Toys 2 Discover.
