INNsider Cookie Donations by Mineola Students

Submitted by Mineola School District.

Sixth-graders in the Mineola Union Free School District completed a service-learning project for the INN.

As part of their Family and Consumer Sciences class, students baked cookies for the holidays and donated them to the organization. The INN’s Communications/PR Manager Dana Lopez came to Mineola Middle School on Dec. 15 to accept the donations and speak with students on exactly how their cookies will go a long way towards helping families on Long Island. She also showed a brief video, which detailed hunger and homelessness on Long Island and the various ways students could help.
