Optimum, Discovery Channel and Save the Children Gives Back to Students
On Friday, November 5, 2021, Altice arrived at David Paterson IB World school to donate back bags and school supplies donated by Optimum, Discovery Channel and Save the Children. Optimum partnered with these organizations to focus on child advocacy and provide resources and support to children across the United States. Students were surprised and excited to receive the book bags filled with a notebook, coloring tools, pencil case, water bottle and wipes.
Classes were called outside to receive their backpacks. Our students were so grateful and appreciative of their backpack and supplies. As they were each handed a bag of supplies, you could see their eyes filled with joy and excitement! Some were able to take pictures in front of the truck carrying all the supplies that were delivered.
As one student expressed, “This is amazing!” and another “When my school gets something, I feel joyful and happy. When people give something to us, I feel it’s our duty to give back to them.”
