LOWEST PRICING OF THE YEAR!!

In 2020, Blue Point Brewing launched the aptly coined ‘Toast Your Hero’ campaign as a way to thank frontline workers and hometown heroes at the start of the pandemic. Blue Point’s famous blue fire truck made its way throughout Long Island delivering beer and food to those nominated on social media for their acts of kindness and generosity when the community needed it most. This year, Blue Point’s giveback campaign is back and returning in a whole new way with the first annual ‘Toast Your Hero’ Hockey Classic benefiting the veterans and hometown heroes of Project9line and the Long Island Warriors. Blue Point’s hockey team, the Blue Point

Bastards, will take on local veteranled hockey program, the Long Island Warriors, for this inaugural holiday classic. The two teams will face off on Sunday, December 12th at Northwell Health Ice Center at Eisenhower Park with proceeds benefitting Project9line along with the Long Island Warriors. People can show support for local veterans by purchasing admission tickets at https://www.eventbrite. com/e/bluepoint-brewings-1sta n n u a l - t o a s t - y o u r- h e r o - h o c k e y classic-tickets-204846028987. Ticket packages will be available for large groups. The game will be announced by 106.1 Morning Show host Syke and Long Island comedian Chris Roach.

EVENT TIME: 7:00-9:00 PM EVENT LOCATION:

Arbour Rink at Northwell Health Ice Center Eisenhower Park, 200 Merrick Avenue, East Meadow, NY 11554

TWO TICKET OPTIONS:

• $35 Ticket - Game admission + one complimentary Blue Point pint at Garden Social + ‘Toast Your Hero’ t-shirt • $20 Ticket - Game admission only About Project9line: Project9line’s mission is to support all veterans, including but not limited to those with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. They do so by providing venues for them to communicate their experiences and express themselves. They offer veteran programs, workshops and opportunities for all military and veterans to tell their story through the arts and by practicing wellness through their activities. About The Long Island Warriors: The Long Island Warriors is a non-profit, volunteer-run hockey program that aims to provide a hockey team for veterans, active military members, reservists and any military family members on Long Island. They were created to strengthen veteran community engagement and provide veteran camaraderie to return to civilian life.

Autism FYI www.autismfyi.org

Autism FYI was founded by Dr. James Benjamin and his wife Joyce in 2014 to help advance awareness of the needs surrounding people with Autism. They accomplish this goal of theirs through a safety membership program offered by their organization that is called IRIS, as well as through training that creates community awareness about Autism and allows businesses to become “Autism Friendly Certified”, which allows them to create a more inclusive community for those with Autism. Please read on for detailed information about their training opportunities available! Engaging with someone with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can be difficult for people unless they have at least a baseline knowledge of the disorder. Everyday Interactions with the Autism Spectrum Population is a comprehensive course for anyone and everyone who is working, volunteering, attending school, shopping or just out and about in the community and need to help recognize behaviors associated with ASD and safely engage for the good of all involved. Autism FYI’s workshops provide professionals, parents and community members the information needed to significantly support people on the autism spectrum in school, at work and in the community. They created this training course, which is available in person or online to anyone. In this course, you will learn:

Upon completion of the course, you will be more conﬁdent in identifying ASD behaviors, understanding effective engagement and communication techniques, and successfully interacting with someone with ASD. Your business, organization, daycare, etc. will be deemed Autism friendly. To arrange a training, please contact Kristine Riggio at 516-428-9286 or kristine@autismfyi.org.

FOR THE FAMILY

East Islip High School’s SADD club recently visited each fifth grade class at John F. Kennedy and Ruth C. Kinney elementary schools during the last day of Red Ribbon Week to discuss the hazards of alcohol, drugs, bullying and cyberbullying. SADD members encouraged the younger students to join clubs,

participate in sports or get involved with community organizations instead of making poor decisions. The club also introduced the fifth graders to its annual Red Ribbon antidrug slogan contest, which will see two winners each chosen from JFK and RCK. “This program is valuable to both the high

Islip Faculty Donates Thanksgiving Meals To Community

EAST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 8, 2021• WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

Islip School District Assistant Superintendent for Student Support Services Dr. Kate O’Callaghan and Islip High School teacher Renee Clock picked up 25 Thanksgiving food baskets from the Town of

Islip. Each year, the Town and Islip’s Food for Hope create baskets containing traditional Thanksgiving dinner food, including a turkey. These were created through collections gathered through Islip’s Food for Hope donation

and food drive. After collecting the baskets, Dr. O’Callaghan and Ms. Clock distributed them to Islip School District families in need with the assistance of the school social workers.

Collected Giving For The Holidays

In the spirit of the holidays, Islip High School students, faculty and staff came together to support families in the community who are in need. The National Honor Society, World Language Honor Society, Athletes Helping Athletes and Interact Club held a holiday drive and assembled baskets that will help families through the extended holiday season. In addition to filling

the festively-decorated baskets with nonperishable items and items for a complete Thanksgiving meal, staff and faculty also donated gift cards to local supermarkets, department stores, gas stations and pharmacies. This way, families receiving the baskets will be able to purchase a turkey and supplement additional holiday purchases during the entire holiday season.

Social worker Shari Pennington said, “It is important to let the community know that the entire school community came together to help Islip families. Everyone stepped up to help make the holidays special for those who found holiday challenges this year.” Ms. Pennington said that nine Islip families received baskets this Thanksgiving.

Three Prominent News Broadcasters Step Up To Help Life’s WORC

Besides being wellknown news broadcasters, Geraldo Rivera, Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity also have a deep respect for, and willingness to help Life’s WORC (www. lifesworc.org), a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and autism through its residential, community and trust services. The organization, which this year is celebrating its 50th anniversary, recently received $50,000 each from these prominent media professionals. According to Victoria Schneps-Yunis, it was Geraldo Rivera, who made the first contribution. It was Geraldo’s riveting investigative report in the early 1970s, which exposed the atrocities of Willowbrook State School, then the largest institution in the nation serving children with developmental disabilities. Victoria’s daughter was a resident there and she had long been fighting for better conditions. Geraldo’s report, which won him a Peabody Award, and Victoria’s fervent advocacy, ultimately led to Willowbrook’s closing. Victoria then founded Life’s WORC and opened its first group home in Little Neck, Queens 50 years ago. Geraldo has been

by Victoria’s side since - a longstanding friend and supporter. It was a visit by Geraldo, his wife Erica Levy, and Victoria to Bill O’Reilly’s home in Montauk where Bill learned more about Life’s WORC. Over lunch, Victoria and Geraldo shared the history of Life’s WORC and the amazing progress it has made over the past five decades. Talk turned to the organization’s 50th anniversary celebration, during which Victoria, Geraldo and Bill will all be honored. That led to Geraldo announcing his $50,000 donation, which Bill then matched. Sean Hannity, who had just hosted Geraldo and Erica at his East End Long Island home the previous night, made it a triumvirate and together, the “Three Musketeers” as Victoria fondly referred to them, helped create a new legacy fund for Life’s WORC. Victoria noted that the three broadcasters were all brought up on Long Island and they are supporting a cause in their own backyard adding that, “Life’s WORC is an organization that helps more than 1,000 people with developmental disabilities and on the autism spectrum in warm, loving group homes and day programs supporting them and their families.” More About Life’s WORC Life’s WORC was

founded 50 years ago after the closing of Willowbrook State School back in the early 1970s. As a young reporter, Geraldo Rivera exposed the deplorable conditions that existed within the then largest institution in the nation serving children with developmental disabilities. Rivera first learned about these conditions from Life’s WORC founder Victoria Schneps Yunis. Her daughter, Lara, diagnosed at an early age with severe brain damage, was a resident at Willowbrook. When cuts in state funding caused the institution to fall into extensive disrepair, Schneps Yunis, along with other concerned individuals, picketed to fight for the rights of Willowbrook’s more than 5,000 residents. Rivera’s report, which earned him a Peabody Award, ultimately forced the closing of Willowbrook. Schneps Yunis started Life’s WORC and opened its first home in Little Neck, Queens. Its first residents were former Willowbrook residents. Today, Life’s WORC provides beautiful homes located across the region, from Nassau and Suffolk to Queens and Manhattan, in addition to community services, financial and trust services, and the programs and services of its Family Center for Autism.

After holding a schoolwide food drive, Commack Road Elementary School students, faculty and parents came together to assemble food baskets for Islip families in need this holiday season. The annual Night of Giving event is a tradition

at Commack Road. Principal James Cameron said the evening is a wonderful way for students and the school community to make a difference. School social worker Jasmin Dengeles explained that there is a real need in the community this year and that the

school community was particularly generous. “This is a great opportunity for kids at CRES to help other members of the community and to participate in a really great community service activity,” Ms. Dengeles said.

Connecting Military Parents And Children, One Story At A Time

(StatePoint) For deployed service members who are also parents, being away from their kids is often the hardest part of the job. This is why the United Service Organizations (USO) has prioritized connecting military parents with their families. One way to bring service members a reminder of home is through USO entertainment tours, the most famous tour veteran, of course, being legendary comedian Bob Hope. Hope’s legacy of service lives on today through the Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program. Bringing story time ondemand around the globe, the program connected THANKSGIVING BASKETS FOR FAMILIES IN NEED - Commack Road more than 39,000 military Elementary School students in the Islip School District put together Thanksgiving families around the world baskets for families in need during the school’s annual Night of Giving.

visit participating USO locations, record themselves reading their child’s favorite story and the USO ships that recording and book home to loved ones. Likewise, military kids can record themselves reading a book and share the story time memories with their parents serving overseas. Additionally, local USO reading events encourage kids to use their creativity and complete a craft that complements a story’s theme. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit and many locations had to temporarily shut their doors, this did not deter USO volunteers and staff from finding innovative ways to continue their efforts safely. USO Erbil in Iraq put their ingenuity to work and outfitted the

back of a pickup truck with a makeshift trifold to serve as a reading “room.” They then decorated the inside of the room and packed up a box of books, some props and a chair. The USO team drove the truck all around base, stopping outside popular locations as well as remote areas to reach as many service members as possible with their new, unofficial “Bob Hope on the Road” reading room. To learn about how you can help connect military families through reading, visit uso.org/programs. Parents universally know the draw of reading “one more book” to a pleading little one at bedtime. The Bob Hope Legacy Reading Program gives that opportunity back to deployed parents.
