About:
Students in the Student Council and the Equality for Everyone clubs at South Middle School in the Lynbrook School District joined together to organize a food drive to benefit a local charity.
Students researched local community organizations and chose Soup to Nuts Soup Kitchen in Freeport. From Nov. 9-23, students brought in donations, which the clubs collected.
The fundraiser was a reminder of the district’s monthly theme of gratitude. Students discussed the importance of giving back to their communities.
