Midnight Run: St. Luke’s Seniors Help the Homeless
On two winter nights, groups of St. Luke’s Class of 2020 piled into vans full of clothing, blankets, bags, toiletries, and food and headed to Manhattan to distribute the various items to homeless people. This late-night, chilly, yet rewarding, annual senior event would not have been possible without the generous donations from our School community.

- St. Luke’s parents, committee leaders, Midnight Run parent project leaders Lisa Delong and Ann Marie Beurle
- Seniors student project leaders
