Quinn Willett is one of the leaders of the of the Jewish Student Union and started a toy drive fundraiser. Sports Editor Cesar Mendez interviewed Willett about the fundraiser.

Cesar Mendez: When and where is the toy drive being held? 

Quinn Willett: The toy drive is being held at the Beth-El shelter in Milford and ends December 15th which is the last night of Hanukkah. 

CM: Why did you decide a toy drive?

QW: I chose to do a toy drive because I wanted to help a community near me. Not all kids are fortunate enough to get toys this holiday season so I want to try my very best to help the kids who can’t. 

CM: Who are you looking to target for this drive?

QW: I’m looking to target Jewish kids of all ages who may be in need or not as fortunate as everyone else. 

CM: What other activities does the JSU have planned?

QW: JSU was started a little over a month and a half ago and so far we’ve been doing every-other weekly meetings. We’ve done a few activities like learning about kosher food, Jewish traditions, and next we are learning about Hanukkah.

CM: What was your favorite part about starting the JSU?

QW: My favorite part about starting the JSU is to have a community at the school I go to that I can belong to. It’s very nice to have a group of people at your school you can bond with over something and also share Jewish culture with those who don’t know.
