Annual North End Benefit Luncheon a Huge Success

To the Editor,

Despite the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic and not being able to hold our Annual Christmas Fund Luncheon, the North End Christmas Fund was able to meet its fundraising goal and send out checks to over 200 families, seniors and children this Christmas Season.  “Thanks to the generous donations from the business community, friends, neighbors and community organizations as well as our local elected officials we were able to help everyone on our list,” stated Chairmen Ted Tomasone.

The North End Christmas Fund committee is made up of members of several North End Human Service and non-profit Agencies such as the North End Athletic Association, Nazzaro Center, North End Against Drugs, North End Waterfront Health, North End Seniors, ABCD – North End/West End Service Center, and the Ausonia Council Knights of Columbus.

Thank you again to all who contributed to make this year very successful and allow us to help so many people in need.  We plan to resume the luncheon in 2021.
