The members of the Dawnwood Middle School National Junior Honor Society (NJHS) in the Middle Country Central School District recently embarked on their annual holiday shopping trip to Target. The event was a great success with over $250 worth of toys purchased for the Giving Tree.
“The annual holiday shopping trip to Target is a cherished tradition for our NJHS members,” said Karena Israel, advisor of the Dawnwood Middle School NJHS. “It not only allows them to experience the joy of giving, but also teaches them the importance of empathy, compassion, and community service. We are incredibly proud of their dedication and commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.”
The Giving Tree is a charitable initiative that benefits Stony Brook’s Children’s Hospital, providing joy and comfort to children who are receiving medical care during the holiday season. Each year, the Dawnwood Middle School NJHS members eagerly participate in this heartwarming tradition, spreading holiday cheer and making a positive impact in their community.
Under the guidance of their dedicated advisor, the Dawnwood Middle School NJHS members carefully selected a wide variety of toys that catered to the diverse interests and age groups of the children at Stony Brook Children’s Hospital. From stuffed animals to board games to art supplies, the students made thoughtful choices to ensure that every child would find something special under the tree.
