Assemblyman thanks Levy-Lakeside student council

New York State Assemblyman David McDonough recently visited Levy-Lakeside Elementary School in Merrick and presented the student council with an Assembly Citation for participation in his Coats for Kids campaign.

“I want to thank all the students at Levy-Lakeside Elementary for their outstanding efforts in support of Coats for Kids,” said McDonough. “A warm coat for a child without one can make a world of difference. All jackets collected by the students will help a young boy or girl in need in our community. My office continues to accept donations. I want to again thank the students, faculty and staff at Levy-Lakeside Elementary for their support and encourage all who are able to make a donation.”

McDonough’s Coats for Kids drive will continue through the holiday season. Donations are being accepted at his district office, at 404 Bedford Ave. in Bellmore, weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
