How was your year?
PS 64 had a very successful 2008-2009 BHC school year.  Students participated with the American Diabetes Association, raising $800 during a School Walk from their school to Bronx Lebanon Hospital to help raise awareness of the disease.  Students then invited Luz Carty, School Walk Manager to facilitated a parent workshop on Diabetes.  Students also created t-shirts and banners to help promote healthy eating habits and exercise.  They were so moved by the experience that the invited their non BHC peers to join them at BHC Global Youth Service Day event so they could experience the service of a walk-a-thon.
