This is what community is all about.

Our friends at Lowville American Legion recently held a fundraiser to support the residents impacted by the Whitton Place fire, raising an incredible $1,534.

We had the opportunity to stop by and accept the donation on behalf of our residents. All funds raised will be distributed directly to the residents impacted by the fire.

A huge thank you to the Legion and to everyone who donated, participated, and helped make this fundraiser possible. We continue to be amazed by the way our community has stepped up to support our residents. 💚
