About:
Student council members at Marion Street Elementary School recently organized a toy drive to support the Children’s Heart Foundation and the children at South Nassau Communities Hospital. The students delivered the donated toys on Dec. 20 to the hospital and performed holiday songs in the hospital’s atrium.
“It feels very good to give back to people who aren’t going to be able to spend time at their house with their families,” said student council president and fifth-grader AJ Berkowitz. “It feels good making them happy during the holiday season.”
