Cereal box collections have continued into March in the Sachem Central School District. Grundy Avenue Elementary School is the most recent building to hold a cereal box drive to benefit local organizations. Students and staff collected 1,013 cereal boxes to distribute between the Lighthouse Mission, the pantry at St. John’s of Holbrook, the Sayville Soup Kitchen and the Calvary Chapel Island of Grace food pantry.

Before sending the donations off, Grundy Avenue Elementary School lined the boxes up through the hallways and into the cafeteria where they formed the shape of the letter “G.” The boxes were knocked down domino-style, symbolizing the chain reaction effect of kindness and helping others.
