Ebony Guerrier, a Uniondale mother of three, school paraprofessional and PTA member, continues to inspire her community through her charitable efforts. What began during the coronavirus pandemic as a small food and clothing giveaway has grown into Mrs. G’s Brown Bag Charity, a grassroots organization focused on supporting families in need.
One of the charity’s signature events is the annual Halloween Trunk-or-Treat, which Guerrier launched in 2020. This year’s event, held at Uniondale Avenue Park, featured 25 decorated cars and attracted families, local schools and fire departments for a safe, festive celebration. Children collected treats, enjoyed games and participated in Halloween-themed activities.
Over the years, the charity has expanded to offer Thanksgiving baskets, toy giveaways at Christmas, Easter egg hunts and Mother’s Day events. Funded through Guerrier’s personal contributions and community donations, the organization aims to gain nonprofit status and continue building programs that unite and uplift local families.
