The Elf Leader Lists

These lists provide the contact information for the individuals who coordinate with area schools. The Winter Holiday Program Leaders is first followed by the Summer Backpack Program Leaders. If you wish to help a particular school, contact that leader. If you are unsure of who to choose, would like to help in general, would like to become a leader, or would like to suggest an additional school or organization for our list, contact the Elf Organizer Bill Alberta, wna1@cornell.edu
