Helping us was Boy Scout Troop 62 of Goshen, New York, which purchased 35 gifts for the older boys on our list. The troop was inspired by the memory of CEC member, Lois Krieger, beloved grandmother of one of the troop members. She had been one of our annual shoppers, and her altruism lives on.
In February we received a generous donation from Stewart's Shop, which will go a long way to purchasing presents for children 18 and under in the coming holiday season.
The CEC is also very fortunate that John Botti of John's Harvest Inn is one of our biggest supporters. On Sunday, April 19, he'll be giving a portion of all the money the restaurant makes that day to the CEC. So be sure to come in. You'll have a great meal in a charming restaurant, and the children of Orange County will benefit as well!
