This “Valentine’s Day,” students at Northwest Elementary School in Amityville are sharing love through heartfelt messages of gratitude to local veterans.
Northwest Elementary School students created handmade cards, letters and drawings as part of State Senator Monica R. Martinez’s initiative to thank military veterans living in Long Island’s Fourth Senate District.
The little students’ creations, made during the week of January 26, will be distributed to veterans just in time for Valentine’s Day, the day of love and friendship to be celebrated this Saturday, February 14.
These creations will showcase the sweetness of kindness, offering both students and recipients a meaningful reminder of the community’s appreciation for their contributions.
This initiative encouraged students to express gratitude and affection to those who have made important contributions to our country and their communities, reinforcing the importance of recognizing their service and dedication.
