Second grade students at the Yonkers Charter School of Educational Excellence, CSEE, held a fund raiser for the Yonkers Animal Shelter. The second grade class together with their teachers Miss. Mirsky, Miss Russo and Miss Triglia, chose the animal shelter at the recipient of their yearly project which helps an organization that helps those in need.
When employees from the Yonkers Animal Shelter arrived to accept the donations, they introduced two kittens called Tom and Jerry to the students, who were delighted. Miss Mirsky was extremely proud of the students for doing a great job on this donation drive. Yonkers Parks Commissioner Steve Sansone and Deputy Commissioner Lisa Kay Harris addressed the students and thanked them for the donations and answered questions about the pet adoption program.
