Company donates more than 1,000 school supplies to needy students in Suffolk County

A Long Island-based company donated more than 1,000 school supplies to help local students in need.

Between Monday August 16 and Wednesday August 25, Widex USA hosted a virtual school supplies campaign in Suffolk County for Brentwood School District students.

The company that makes hearing aids is based in Hauppauge.

Company employees donated much-needed items, including composition books, folders, pencils, notebooks, and more.

“I was able to assemble at least 50 backpacks for the students in our district who need them most – and still have plenty of supplies,” said Michele Stylianos, school advisor for the Brentwood School District. “Thanks to the generosity of Widex, no student in our district will miss out on the essentials of learning.”

This is the second year the company is running a promotion for the Suffolk County School District.
