Letter to the Editor – October 8

On October 8, 2016, in Latest News, by The Somerville Times

dilboy-postDear Community Supporters,

The George Dilboy Post 529’s Annual Marine Corps Birthday Celebration will be held on November 10, 2016. All veterans are invited and encouraged to attend. This year marks the 241th anniversary of the United States Marine Corps. Over the past 20 years, members have gathered yearly to honor those who have served our country and those who continue to serve and by providing toys for disadvantaged children.

Last year we were able to provide, needed financial support to the United States Marine Corps’ Toys for Tots program, thanks to the support of local donors and businesses.

This year, we seek community assistance to continue this financial support in the form of money, gifts certificates or other raffle items. All gifts are tax deductible. Please make checks payable to George Dilboy Post 529 c/o Toys for Tots. If it is more convenient, please call 617-666-8794 and we will make arrangements for a club officer to pick up the donation.

Respectfully submitted,

Mark Killoren
Chairman and former Marine

P.S. Please note do not send cash.
