Rebecca Chernok's favorite part of her volunteer work for Project Hospitality is breaking up stalks of broccoli to serve at the center's soup kitchen.
'It makes me happy,' said the 21-year-old Hungerford School senior, flashing a shy smile.
Students from Hungerford, the Clifton high school for students with severe cognitive disabilities, donate their time each year to several worthwhile groups on Staten Island. And their volunteer work for Project Hospitality -- an interfaith effort that serves the homeless and hungry on the Island, as well as those living with HIV/AIDS -- has earned them a $500 grant that they, in turn, have passed on to Project Hospitality.
