The Milford Youth Center was able to provide a gift this Holiday season to over 120 After-School members due to such amazing generosity from the community! We are so excited to announce that this doubled the amount of gifts that we were able to give out last year!!!
We would first like to thank Pizza Chef of Milford for their generosity of donating 15 Pizzas for the event! Thank you to Rocky Lynch for purchasing a beautiful cake to feed 100 for the party as well! We would like to send a big thank you to the United Way of Tri-County, Barbara LaGrenade and Jessica Friswell, and their “Hope for the Holidays” program for sponsoring 38 kids this year! Thank you to Lisa Kohne who helped facilitate collections from Inspire Dance Academy(17 gifts) and Anytime Fitness Medway (21 gifts)! Thank you to Ellen Alfieri and Kara Griffith for organizing the collection of 19 gifts from BST MMA & Fitness! We would also like to thank Waters Corporation, and especially Debbie Moreau, Senior Administrative Assistant, for organizing a collection for 13 After Schools members.
