Solomon Schechter Academy student gives a boost to Mount Sinai

Grade 6 graduate and Student Council President, Jonah Blant, began an initiative last year of collecting soda can tabs to donate. He recently made a trip to Mount Sinai Hospital Foundation with his mom, Leah Berger, and Head of School, Mr. Erdelyi, to donate the tabs.

Mount Sinai Auxiliary will receive money in return for the tabs, and will use that money to support the needs of the hospital. Jonah used his mathematics skills to calculate how many tabs we had, without counting them one by one! He weighed the bag and did some division to figure out that, thanks to his fellow students at Solomon Schechter Academy, he had collected about 25,400 tabs.
