The Chaille Family, who have owned and operated Green and
Yellow Cab of Somerville for 30 years, invite you to share in the opportunity
to help raise funds for the seniors in our great city of Somerville.  Too
many seniors fall through the cracks and are unable to get transportation for
their daily needs, whether it is for medical appointments or just to get to the
grocery store. In memory of our beloved Mother and Grandmother, we have
started the Edith Chaille Memorial Transportation Fund. Our family will
donate $5,000 dollars a year toward this fund. Unfortunately, this is not
enough. The needs are great and the resources are few. Last year
with the monies raised we were able to grant over 600 rides to seniors who
needed transportation absolutely free of charge. Through this fund many seniors
were able to go physical rehab, fill their refrigerators, visit sick spouses at
the hospital and unfortunately attend their loved ones funerals.

In conjunction with the Somerville Council on Aging and Somerville
Cambridge Elder Services, we will be having a fundraiser event tonight, Tuesday October
7^th, at The Holiday Inn on Washington Street in Somerville from 6:00pm
until 10:00pm. The cost of tickets will be $25.00 and there will be a buffet
&  DJ, with live and silent auctions. Donations for auction
items would be greatly appreciated as well.

We look forward to making this another successful
event.  If you have any questions or suggestions please feel free to
contact Cheryl Horan, at choran.greencab@yahoo.com. You may also contact the Somerville Council on Aging
