Readers Write: Help Port Community Chest help others

The Island Now

I am a board member of the Community Chest of Port Washington and have been for 30 years. 

The Community Chest is a one-of-a kind treasure for Port.  Where else do you have an organization whose mission is to help all Port Washington residents who are in-need? 

I serve on the board because I want my efforts and my donations to serve as many residents as possible. 

The Community Chest grants help 6,500 residents in various ways. 

I feel that it is my obligation to help locally and I am proud to say that I donate both with my time and with my wallet. 

We need the community’s help to spread the word about the work of the Community Chest.  October 1st  was the beginning of our 2017-18 campaign. 

Please open your hearts and donate at www.portchest.org or call 767-2121. The need is greater than you might be able to see.  Thank you.
