Martin L. King, Jr. Elementary School in the Wyandanch Union Free School District recently received a generous donation of school supplies from three high school students in the Half Hallow Hills School District.
Seniors Jai Dony, Evan Matthew and Kanv Sondhi raised funds through a GoFundMe campaign and donations from their local community to purchase the supplies.
“We just wanted to help and brighten someone’s day,” said Kanv Sondhi.
As the three high schoolers arrived at the school, the student government club welcomed them and helped to unload the boxes of supplies.
“We are so grateful and proud of these young individuals for their generosity,” said Interim Principal Kimberly Behling.
The school supplies will be distributed to the students and used throughout the school year.
