About:
On January 20, Martin Luther King Day, Rising Stars joined together with The Gural JCC to pack over 1,500 “Warm Smiles Bags” filled with donated dental hygiene supplies and warm clothes to be distributed to disadvantaged Long Island children. Martin Luther King Day was designated a National Day of Service and Rising Stars families rose to the occasion as they always do! It was a day of inspiration as we came together to serve our community. As Dr. King said, “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
