Thank you to Canton’s DISH ‘n Dat American Eatery for their annual Christmas meal for Farmington Valley neighbors. This year, they were able to feed 575 hot meals including over 700 desserts. They also distributed more than 1500 toys to children and handed out more than 400 gift cards for teens and adults to/from local businesses. In addition, they distributed almost 1200 non-perishable food items.
Their many partners in this effort include the Avon and Canton Rotary, Shop Rite of Canton, Avon Unico, Jules Poirier Co., Canton’s Volunteer Fire Department, Cake Gypsy, and many more businesses and individuals.
Special shout out to the owner, Danny Keller, for never turning away anyone and for spearheading this effort year after year. You are a true community hero! Thank you to the more than 40 volunteers who helped make this happen.
Sincerely,
Eleni Kavros DeGraw
State Representative |
