Locust Valley High School’s Hispanic Heritage Club and Greek Club presented a check for $410 to the Moreano World Medical Mission on Feb. 16 after a bake sale earlier in the month. The bake sale saw students produce creative treats like s’more cupcakes, brownies, cookies and cupcakes with a beach scene, umbrella and gummy bears.
