New York Toy Gun Exchange

Founded by Shafiroff, the program allows children to exchange their water pistols, replica fire arms and other imitation weapons for sporting goods, educational items and safe toys. The Long Island Toy Gun Exchange Program is being sponsored by the Hempstead School District and the toys are being donated by Ms. Shafiroff to stop gun violence - before it starts. This is the first program of its kind in the Long Island/New York City metropolitan area.
