Randolph to Participate in Operation Gratitude
Posted: November 10, 2018
Brighton Cromwell, LLC has partnered with Operation Gratitude to collect items for our service men and women serving overseas.
If you’d like to donate, there will be a box in the atrium at town hall on Millbrook Avenue and another at the recreation department on Calais Road starting Wednesday, November 14, 2018 to Wednesday, December 5, 2018 at 4:30 p.m. The list of “wish items” is below.
Also, if you’d like to help assemble care kits or a “Battalion Buddy”—stuffed bears dressed in “camo” style jacket and cap—to be distributed to the children of deployed troops, which will hopefully serve as a source of comfort while their parents/guardians are away, that event will take place on Saturday, December 8, 2018 at 9 a.m. to approximately 11 a.m. at Brighton Cromwell, 111 Canfield Avenue, Building C, Randolph.
