Adopt a Family
Dear Neighbors,
On the morning of December 13th, Elaine Kyriakakis and Jeff Rosow offered their large SUVs to transport the Adopt-a-Family gifts to Child and Family Services in Middletown. On behalf of the Social Committee, I would like to thank our neighbors at the Village at Mount Hope Bay who participated in this wonderful holiday giving program. Not only did you purchase and wrap every item on each girl’s wish list, you also donated many bags of generic toys, clothes and books which will be wrapped and distributed to children of needy families in our area.
Christmas morning should be filled with surprise and happiness for seven teenagers and many others because of you. Thank you again for your thoughtfulness.
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Joyous Holidays to you all!
Sincerely,
Carolyn Melbourne
