Last week, Verona UNICO President Mickey Melillo Lawrence, presented a $500 donation to Verona Fire Chief Nick Poliseno of the Verona Fire Dept.
UNICO National is an Italian-American service organization that promotes Italian heritage and raises money for local charities. Nearly all the money that Verona UNICO raises throughout the year is donated back to Verona in the form of Verona town improvements, Verona charities, and Verona scholarships.
Inspired by the work that Verona UNICO does, Kevn Toscano (a member of Verona UNICO and Verona Fire Dept.) matched Verona UNICO’s $500 donation to the Verona Fire Dept.
