Knitting Unites Volunteers At Murphy

The school's Community Connections Club recently lent their knitting skills to a worthy cause.

THREE VILLAGE, NY - From Three Village Central School District: Three Village Central School District’s R.C. Murphy Junior High School’s Community Connections Club recently lent their knitting skills to a worthy cause and created 470 caps for neonatal intensive care unit at Stony Brook University Hospital.

The after-school club, which is advised by teachers Ginger Ferraro and Emma Domino, established this project with the hospital three years ago as a way to give back to the local community. Each year, the club members have created and donated at least 300 caps for the cause.

This year’s donation was made extra special thanks to a donation from club member Caitlyn Calise and her grandma, who made more than 200 caps on their own.
