My name is Giovia Deputato and I am a junior at Bloomfield High School. My Italian heritage is very important to me and one way I am able to express that is being a part of my school’s Italian Club. In the Italian Club, we do donations, food drives, bake sales, and really anything we can to contribute to the community.
