More than 1,110 miles from the Bridgehampton School is the
small country of The Bahamas that the world knows was ravaged by
Hurricane Dorian in late August. When Bridgehampton High School junior
Miles Clark heard the news of the storm, he set into action a plan of
compassion when he spearheaded a clothing drive to help those affected
by the most powerful and devastating storm known to ever hit the
islands.
Miles’ project has been met with much enthusiasm in the
Bridgehampton School and community. He will personally deliver five
boxes of clothing, shoes, flip flops, hats and other summer clothing on
an upcoming humanitarian trip to the region with his family.
“This gesture points to the goodness of people in our school
community,” Principal Mike Miller said. “We all commend Miles, his
family and the many other families and community members who’ve
generously helped by putting others before themselves.”
