Fourth Graders Spread Hope to Cancer Patients Through Service Project

Fourth Graders Spread Hope to Cancer Patients Through Service Project
Bronxville, NY

Bronxville Elementary School’s fourth graders turned Valentine’s Day into a day of compassion by creating beaded bracelets filled with messages of love and hope for cancer patients. 

As part of a meaningful service project through the Creative heARTS Program, the students worked together to uplift those undergoing treatment at the White Plains Hospital Cancer Care Center, demonstrating the power of small acts of kindness. Fourth grade teacher Lauren Carfora Wright said the project was designed to help students recognize how even the simplest gestures can have a profound and lasting impact on others. 

This initiative is part of the school’s ongoing commitment to service learning, with another project planned for April, reinforcing the importance of empathy, engaged citizenship and giving back throughout the school year.
