Students fundraise for Autism Society of America by selling ice pops

Posted

John Street School ISP students sold ice pops during lunch hours, from March 25-27, to raise funds for local nonprofit organization Nassau-Suffolk Autism Society of America, also known as NSASA.
The nonprofit’s mission is to support individuals with autism in the communities across Long Island.
John Street School raised $820 during the ice pop fundraiser, with all proceeds going to NSASA to help provide free educational, social and recreational opportunities.
The school invited families to complete a puzzle piece for a hallway display in honor of World Autism Awareness Day on April 2.
NSASA offers opportunities for children or adults with autism and their families to participate in recreational and social activities and events in the community. Activities include a wide range of events such as roller-skating, private movie screenings, plays, bowling and more.
