To the Editor:

The Christ Child Society of Albany is a not-for-profit organization of volunteers committed to helping children in need to honor the childhood of Christ.

The Christ Child Society of Albany, together with Glennpeter Jewelers, is planning a Fun-Raiser on Thursday, Sept. 12, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Glennpeter Jewelers located at 1544 Central Ave. in Albany.

Glennpeter Jewelers will be providing hot and cold appetizers along with a cash-only bar.  All proceeds including tips will benefit Christ Child Society of Albany. 

There is no admission; however, there will be door prizes, a gift-card pull, and an opportunity to take chances on a variety of themed baskets. Glennpeter Jewelers will also be running some special sales on jewelry during this event.  

Glennpeter Jewelers requires a head count to host this event; therefore, kindly respond with the total number of people attending to Cathy Fredette, event chairperson, by Wednesday, Sept. 3, at her home  phone at 518-478-9409, her cell phone at 518-542-2291, or by email at cfredette1339@gmail.com.

Hope to meet you there with your friends and family.
