Students at Long Beach High School’s NIKE Alternative High School Program organized holiday toy drive for the children at Nassau University Medical Center, asking each student and faculty member to purchase a toy for either a boy or a girl. The students collected dozens of toys, which they wrapped in festive holiday paper and delivered personally to children being treated at the pediatric ward and burn unit of the hospital. This is just one of many projects students at the NIKE school hope to complete as part of their new community service program.
