Southampton High School National Honor Society students recently made colorful Halloween costumes for Stony Brook University Hospital NICU patients with the
goal of bringing a fun Halloween to families who are dealing with being in the hospital for the holiday.  Co-adviser Jacqui Fritz started  the community service project after seeing a request from a friend at March of Dimes. Fritz’s own son was the recipient of costumes like the ones that students made, and when the students heard how meaningful the project is to the families going through a difficult time, they jumped at the chance to help.
