To the Editor:

It is that time of year again when the local unit of the Salvation Army will be setting up kettles and ringing the bells to raise money for our friends and neighbors in Newtown that need our assistance. The money raised from donations to the kettle goes to help pay for food, heat and utility bills, auto expenses to get to job interviews, medical expenses, and rent or mortgage payments for those who are struggling to make ends meet. How can you help?

We need bell ringers on December 7th and 8th and December 14th and 15th. If you can donate one hour of your time, please contact Anna Wiedemann at aroosterw@yahoo.com or 203-417-3004 as soon as possible. Also, when you see our kettles around town, please give whatever you can.

Thank you.
