Leeward Luncheon Gratitude Video

12/11/2019

In case anyone would like to watch our video presentation from the other day. This video not only showcases the donation amounts from 2019 but also the total amount given since we opened in 2009!

We have tons of pictures from yesterday’s holiday luncheon at Portside Waterfront Kitchen & Bar in Salisbury. It was such an incredible sight seeing 63 of our team members celebrating our 10 year anniversary. Our volunteers are the most amazing people who truly understand the importance of giving back. Collectively we have given over $2.5 million to charitable partners in our surrounding communities!
During our event we presented Lyndsey Haight from Our Neighbors Table, Kerri Perry from Community Action, Inc. in Haverhill, Heather Roberge, Ericka Sanborne and Mesha Quinn from York County Community Action Corp. and Kent Davis from Fuel & More with their annual donation checks.
Thank you to everyone who attended yesterday’s event!
