Ann Marie was our community service guest speaker at Januarys meeting. Incase you weren't able to attend Januarys meeting, Ann Marie is a Trumbull resident who for many years has been feeding the poorest of the poor in Bridgeport.  She cooks and serves a hot meal once every 2 weeks, funding this effort largely by herself.  She also collects and donates clothing and food for them to take away.

The following is an email received by
SKG Co-President Irene Blumenthal

"Hello - 
     
My name is Kristine Sisbarro and I am a co-chair of the Monroe-Trumbull Relay for Life, which raises funds for the American Cancer Society. I am hoping your organization can help us with a request. The Relay is held in June every year, we raised over $80,000 for cancer research and
programs for survivors last year. At the Relay every year, we have a dinner reception for the
cancer survivors in our community.  At the reception, we give the survivors a "goodie" bag. This year, we would like to give each survivor a shawl/lapghan and we are hoping some of your members would help us out with making these. We need to collect about 100 of them and the Planning Committee is asking all the knitters/crocheters they know, as well as the Women's Club of Trumbull. We will be happy to get you the measurements we are looking for and will try to get the supplies donated. 

Thank you in advance for your consideration. 

Sincerely,
Kristine Sisbarro
