The holiday season is here!
Although our tradition has come to its end, I'd like to remind everyone how important it is to still donate to your local charities.
There are plenty around and tons in need!

For instance, our very own New Britain Elks Club and Fire Department is hosting this charity event in just a couple of days! Please join them in their efforts to help those in need this season!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Even though we will not have open house this year, I wanted to remind everyone how important it is to still donate to your local charities. There are so many families in need. Your donations from touring the house has had a huge impact in feeding the hungry in our community and your continued help is still very much needed and appreciated.

Happy Birthday to Rita in Heaven

Today we honor the generous spirit and inspiring memory of our dear friend Rita Giancola on her birthday. She gave comfort and support to countless families in need over so many decades. And her legacy lives on, as we continue to receive donations in her honor from her loving family and friends. Rita you are in our hearts forever! And a role model for us all ❤

Also, a huge thank you to the New Britain Police Department, who've regularly checked up on us, especially after the vandalism we had went through through last year. We truly thank you.

Thank you to everyone who celebrated our final year for open house! We reached well over 5,000 people, donated hundreds of bins of food, and raised money for many families in need. We made Rita proud, she is definitely feeling that joy that she gave to so many over the years. It is difficult to close our doors and shut off our lights. A very bittersweet end of an era.
With that being said, I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!!
