A Big Thank You

Lastly, we want to give a huge thank you to the Saint George Orthodox Cathedral, who hosted the 46th annual GLENDI Festival last month, for welcoming the Friends of Italian Americans to set up a booth this year. Because of their hospitality, we proudly welcomed 83 new members to our community. Congratulations to new member, Giuseppe DiMarca, who won a $150 gift card to Angela's Pasta and Cheese in Manchester, NH!

We also had the pleasure of participating in the annual UNICO Golf Tournament, where we gained 11 new members and more involvement in our local community.

Help us keep this momentum going, please consider making a donation. Every contribution goes directly toward supporting our cultural events, outreach, and membership initiatives.
