Williamsport, Lycoming County- Round Hills Elementary School students donated 91 pairs of pajamas during a recent drive to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy.

Led by the "Helping Hands," a philanthropic student group of fifth-graders, the school collected donated pajamas from each classroom in the building as part of its 12 Days of Holiday Celebration. Each pair of pajamas also was attached with a children's book.

The collection was assisted by "Helping Hands" advisor and school counselor Billie Miller, Penn State University counseling intern Tiffany Glab, teachers Todd Penman and Terri Starr, and PTO member Stacey Patterson.
