About:
The Student Council at Waverly Park Elementary School in the Lynbrook Public School District recently spearheaded a supply drive to help individuals in need.
During their weekly meeting, students recognized that there are Ukrainian refugees who are fleeing their country with little more than what they carry with them. Students decided to help in the Lynbrook community’s efforts to raise needed supplies.
Using posters and boxes announcing the supply drive, the students quickly got the word out. The Waverly Park Community donated a trunk full of supplies, with everything from diapers to toys. The items will be dropped off at the Lynbrook Recreation Center in coordination with their efforts.
