Genet Student Delivers Holiday Cards to Hospital Patients

Jan 7, 2022 | District, Genet

Genet Elementary School student Jacob Plonka delivered season’s greetings to the sick in December. He collected holiday cards from schools around the East Greenbush Central School District and then delivered them to patients at St. Peter’s Hospital.

“We were thinking of how we could help people with COVID and this is one of the ideas I had,” Jacob said. “It makes me feel happy.”

Jacob’s dad, Bob Plonka, said he was proud of his son for taking on this project.

“He’s thinking of others,” Mr. Plonka said. “You can’t ask for anything more.”
