Fundraiser for Phil Tripp

ANSONIA - A fundraising event for Mayoral Candidate Phil Tripp will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Aug. 19 at the Central Subalpi Club, 30 Parker St.

Lt. Governor Susan Bysiewicz will be on hand. 

A suggested donation of $50 will be payable at the door. There will be a selection of hors d’oeuvres and Italian eats, made by one of our Ansonia resident’s local restaurants. Assorted soft drinks and a cash bar will also be available.

Tripp has dedicated his life to this country, serving 34 years between the U.S. Army, Army Reserve and National Guard and retiring as a Lieutenant Colonel. Locally, he has tirelessly continued his service to the community by fulfilling his duty as an alderman over the last eight years. 

Still, he is looking to do more for the residents of Ansonia. Tripp was humbled by his nomination and is enthusiastic to roll up his sleeves and get to work on behalf of Ansonia as their mayoral candidate. 

“The people of Ansonia deserve honest leadership dedicated to fiscal responsibility, clean government and authentic economic development," Tripp said.

If unable to attend, please consider making a donation to the campaign by reaching out to us at Trippforansonia@gmail.com.

Shelton Firm Donates Big to Project Purple

           

SEYMOUR - Staff members at Dworken, Hillman, LaMorte and Sterczala, P.C. (DHL&S) in Shelton took it upon themselves to support Project Purple, a Seymour-based nonprofit, by naming the charity as the recipient to its 2018 Jeans for Charity Fundraiser.

 

The staff was encouraged to donate to a fund which was matched by the firm every Friday, in exchange for being allowed to wear jeans. DHL&S raised more than $4,805 for Project Purple as part of its annual campaign.

 

DHL&S, which specializes in accounting, tax, auditing, and business consulting, has raised more than $58,905 for local charities with its Jeans for Charity campaign since 2004.

 

“Fundraisers like this are so important for spreading awareness and sharing our mission,” said Project Purple CEO Dino Verrelli.

 

Project Purple is a national charity that paid out $100,000 in patient financial aid to 152 patients and families who were fighting pancreatic cancer in 2018, while donating $1.38 million in research grants last year.

 

This cause is near and dear to the DHL&S office staff, as some of its members have been impacted personally by the disease.

 

“We are proud to support such a worthy organization,”  DHL&S said in a Facebook post.
