Keith Caputo founded the nonprofit Helping Makes U Happy in 2015 with his mother, Cassy Caputo. The organization fundraises and collects donations of school supplies, food and more, year-round. They recently held a Halloween costume drive in Center Moriches, and still have about 150 costumes left for Long Islanders in need. Credit: Newsday staff; Photo credit: Cassy Caputo
