Nutley S.E.E.K Program Giving out “Gently” Used Sports Equipment

Are times too tight to get your kid the glove, bat or cleats they need to play the sports they want?

Nutley can help.

SEEK, Sports Equipment Encourages Kids, recycles new and “gently used” sports equipment for families otherwise unable to manage the high cost of playing a sport and getting the necessary equipment.  

New and “gently used” sports equipment such as gloves, bats, baseball pants, sliding shorts, cleats, soccer shorts, socks, shin guards, cleats, lacrosse sticks and other equipment are available. 

SEEK was started in 2012 by Nutley High student Isaaak Lindenbaum who wanted to share athletic equipment he no longer used or needed. He approached Mayor Alphonse Petracco and together they developed the SEEK program, leading a successful donation drive.

Families needing sports equipment for your child/children participating in sports through high school or Rec programs, contact the Department of Public Safety at 973-284-4929 to learn how to confidentially benefit from this program.
