WARWICK — Seventh- and eighth-grade home and careers students from Warwick Valley Middle School presented handmade pillow cases to residents of Mount Alverno Center on March 20.

The students made the pillow cases after school with material donated by Neil DeMarino, and then presented the cases as part of the Bon Secours Warwick Health Foundation’s Make This House A Home program, which aims to make living more comfortable for people living at Mount Alverno and nearby Schervier Pavilion.
