Wantagh students give back with books and PJs

Posted

Wantagh Elementary School students extended their philanthropy efforts past the holiday season by hosting a pajama and book drive during the month of January. The student council, under the direction of adviser Lauren Mulry, joined the Pajama Program, a nonprofit organization that promotes and supports comforting bedtime routines and healthy sleep for children facing adversity.

After the pajamas and books are wrapped up, the donations will be sent to shelters on Long Island or in New York City.
