These last few issues of the Great Neck Record we have been so proud to feature quite a few stories about our local students making extraordinary efforts to raise funds for others less fortunate. Helping sick children, raising funds to fight cancer, remembering those who have lost their battles ... you name it, our children are out there working hard for others.

Please do take the time to read, and enjoy, all of these special stories. They are worth the time --- the youngsters are worth the effort to hear their stories, the "causes" are worth learning about and then maybe making your own efforts too. You just never know!

And if you have already found the heart to reach out to others, please feel free to share your wonderful experiences with all of us. We would love to hear from you.
