As part of their participation in Optimum Community’s Charity Champions program, students from SAR High School Academy named S.H.I.N.E. Afterschool Program as their charity for which to raise money and awareness. Westchester County Legislator Virginia Perez was there as Optimum Community reps presented the charity with a $1,000 donation on behalf of SAR’s students.

S.H.I.N.E.
