In conjunction with delivering a large amount of school supplies to John Theissen of the John Theissen Children’s Foundation of Wantagh, I was privileged to present a New York State Assembly Proclamation honoring him for being named the Wantagh Herald Citizen “Man of the Year” for his efforts on behalf of sick and underprivileged children.

In addition, I am reminding everyone that we are in the final days of my Annual School Supply Drive which benefits the Foundation to provide underprivileged children with new school supplies and backpacks to start the school year off.

I would like to thank everyone who has so generously donated so far--and donations will be accepted at my District Office at 404 Bedford Avenue, Bellmore from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. through September 10. LATE DONATIONS WILL ALWAYS BE ACCEPTED.
