Chelsea Financial Services is proud to partner this year with Catholic Charities of Staten Island (CC-SI) for their Annual 2021 Thanksgiving “Leave No Fork Empty” Thanksgiving Food Drive to help benefit Staten Island community members in need this holiday season.
“Our annual food drive has donated thousands of items to families in need.” said Christopher (Chris) Vetrano, Registered Representative at Chelsea Financial Services. “CC-SI is an amazing organization that provides ‘Turkeys and the Trimmings’ during the holiday season. They also run a food pantry year-round and support other food pantries around Staten Island. They work tirelessly to improve lives of those going through difficult times.”
John Pisapia, President of Chelsea Financial added: “We are making a huge change this year. Now, you can donate directly to the cause…Donate $25 to provide one family one turkey, $50 for two families/two turkeys and so on. And you can still bring your non-perishable trimmings to our office, or use amazon.com, walmart.com or other online retailers to ship food items to our office, and CC-SI will receive them to create holiday baskets just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday.”
