The special delivery resulted from a toy drive organized by NTHS members and held in November and December at Carrier.

Earlier this month, the Career & Technical Education students met with hospital officials and delivered the toys, which will be given to children receiving care at Oishei.

"We are extremely proud of how caring and willing our young leaders are and how excited everyone was to be part of this experience," said Nicole Kaleta, a consultant teacher at Carrier and NTHS advisor.

Thank you to everyone who donated! 😊📣🤝
