Volunteers Needed To Help With Thanksgiving Baskets!

Volunteers and donations needed! Can you help?

From Vinny and Margaret Diglio: 

Volunteers Needed! 

Three times a year Madison Community Services, Inc. distributes Holiday Baskets to residents of Madison. Madison Youth and Family Services and Madison Senior Services provide the names of the recipients. The baskets are assembled and delivered at the Madison Surf Club by volunteers. This year we will be assembling the Thanksgiving Baskets on November 24, 2013 at 1:00 PM and delivering them on November 25, 2013 at 9:00 AM for families and at 2:30 PM for singles and seniors. If you would like to help please contact Margaret Diglio (Coordinator) by phone at 203 318 5095 or email margaretdiglio@comcast.net.

Donations sought!

Madison Community Services, Inc. and the Madison Lions annually provide holiday baskets to Madison residents in need of assistance. Holiday Baskets are provided to families, seniors and singles. This year we plan to offer a healthier meal that will include fresh fruit and vegetables. Families will receive a turkey and seniors/singles will receive a roasting chicken. We will, also, supply “the fixings” for the meal. There are items, like condiments, that are not in the baskets.  We would like to include a $10 Stop & Shop Gift Card with the food. The recipients, then, would be able to use the card to purchase items that will complement the meal.

If you would like to help you can send your donation to:
