Dear fellow Hanoverians:<\/p>\n
I hope you and your family are enjoying the holiday season. In keeping with
\nthe spirit of giving that pervades this time of year, I am delighted to
\nbring you a wrap-up report from Libby Corbo, who brings us news regarding
\nthis past fall’s "Candy for a Cause" collection here in Hanover:<\/p>\n
"I just wanted to send along an update on the Candy for a Cause collection
\nat the John Curtis Free Library. This year we collected over 300 pounds of
\ncandy! We sent 34 boxes full of candy and cards (made by local residents
\nand St. Mary’s CCD classes) to soldiers stationed overseas (and a local
\nstate-side soldier as well)! A big thank you to the John Curtis Free
\nLibrary staff who collect all the candy with smiles, to Peter Nixon of AT&T
\nmobility who paid for ALL 34 boxes to be shipped out and, of course, to all
\nthose that donated the candy and made cards! This year we received quite a
\nfew local soldier nominations and we also sent boxes to units deployed out
\nof Massachusetts by using the website www.anysoldier.com
\n . This site links you to soldiers who
\nvolunteer to receive mail and distribute packages to other soldiers in their
\nunit that have not received many packages from home. It is a site worth
\nvisiting all year long." <\/p>\n
