The Lynbrook High School Key Club recently presented a trauma kit to school nurses thanks to a $1,000 donation to the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Center Foundation.
In October, the Key Club hosted a “Double Good Popcorn Fundraiser,” during which the club collected donations to be made toward multiple organizations.
On Dec. 16, the trauma kit, which includes a first-aid kit and other medical emergency supplies, arrived. The Key Club gathered to gift the kit to the school’s beloved nurses, Mrs. O’Brien and Ms. Hetrick. “We are so ecstatic to finally have this kit,” the nurses said. “We cannot thank the KPTC and our Key Club enough.”
“This club continues to amaze me,” Key Club supervisor Dr. Benedict Tieniber said. “There’s nothing they can’t do.”
The Key Club thanked the Kiwanis Pediatric Trauma Center Foundation for collaborating to make this special gift possible.
