Photo caption: This school year, Smithtown High School West DECA students Hannah Maracina, Frank Paccione and Meghan Theofield chose the DezyStrong Foundation as their charitable cause for their DECA. In a year where it is nearly impossible to fundraise, these students hosted a virtual 5K, sold shirts and bracelets and coordinated percentages of sales from local businesses to raise more than $1,700 for the foundation. The DezyStrong Foundation was established to provide the opportunity for individuals with cancer to have access to experiences that directly affect a positive mental well-being.
