Senator Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr. (R-Merrick) recently visited the Roosevelt Children’s Academy to thank students for participating in the Senate’s Earth Day Poster Contest.

     As part of the contest, children made posters which illustrated the importance of “reducing, reusing, and recycling” in order to protect the environment. 70 students from the Roosevelt Children’s Academy participated in the program.

     Senator Fuschillo presented each of the students with a certificate of merit and a letter thanking them for raising awareness about how to protect the environment.
