  1. Tamarac Elementary School student organizes toy drive. Dean Plantamura encourages his peers to drop off toys to his home. Dean and his family then donate the toys to Suffolk County Family and Children’s Services to be distributed to local families in need. It's Dean's second year doing the drive, and he plans to keep the tradition going next year. (Press Release Desk)
