New Hyde Park Students Help Senator Martins Spread Holiday Cheer to Children in Winthrop-University Hospital
January 5, 2015
Students from Hillside Grade School in New Hyde Park recently helped Senator Jack M. Martins (R-7th Senate District) bring some extra holiday cheer to children in need.
The students collected toys for Senator Martins’ annual holiday toy drive to benefit children in Winthrop-University Hospital. Senator Martins visited the school to pick-up the toys and personally thank the students for their efforts.
“Every toy collected by the Hillside students will bring smiles to the faces of families who are going through tough times. They did a wonderful job, and it’s great to see them working so hard to help other children,” said Senator Martins.
