DERBY - Mayor Richard Dziekan is calling upon the greater Derby community to make the holiday season a little brighter for local military families.
In keeping with Derby tradition, Dziekan is asking for monetary contributions for local men and women serving at home or abroad in the military.
These contributions will be equally distributed among Derby service members as a gift of appreciation from the community.
Derby’s Servicemen and Women’s Fund, also supported by the Catholic War Veterans St. Michael’s Post 1562, was created as a way to express appreciation for the sacrifices our brave men and women make to protect our freedoms.
Please send contributions for the Servicemen and Women’s Fund to Mayor Richard Dziekan, Servicemen and Women’s Fund, Derby City Hall, 1 Elizabeth St., Derby, CT 06418.
Checks should be made payable to Derby Servicemen and Women’s Fund.
In addition to monetary donations we are also looking for the names of current members in the armed services who are from Derby.
If you are aware of a Derby serviceman or woman serving at home or abroad who can benefit from this opportunity, contact Dziekan’s office, 203-736-1450, or pgagliardi@derbyct.gov.
This is a press release from Dziekan's office.
