'Fires' fund-raiser
kicks off Oct. 5
POMFRET --- Celebrations Gallery & Shoppes will be selling wooden matches in decorative boxes and Colonial Candles Votives for $10 each from Oct. 5 through Jan. 15 and will donate 100 percent of the sales to the Access Agency’s LIHEAP (Low Income Heating Assistance Program).
With the support of their customers, Celebrations raised over $2,300 last year. The need to assist these families continues grow while the price of oil continues to climb. Each box of matches (in a variety of decorative styles) and each votive (in several fragrances) sold at Celebrations will be festively gift wrapped and come with a donation card. “Keep the Home Fires Burning” matches and candles will make thoughtful holiday gifts and, more importantly, warm neighbors in need during the cold winter months.
