Give Port Washington Light & Love
Tax deductible
Give Port Washington Light & Love is hosting its first annual Lunar Lantern Celebration to raise money to help vulnerable Port Washington residents and support our local restaurants.
The money raised goes directly back into Port-- first to purchase gift cards from our local restaurants and then donated to local families in need.
To celebrate these holidays of Light and Love, Sunset Park (by the town dock) has been decorated with a festive red lantern display along the waterfront.
In Chinese culture, 2021 is the Year of the Ox. The ox is known for its diligence, dependability, strength, and determination, just like our Port Washington community!
You and your family can sponsor a lantern! Your tax-deductible donation will:
• Lend a helping hand to Port families and restaurants, which were hit hard by the pandemic.
• Show your support for cultural diversity by celebrating with Port Washington’s Asian community.
• Provide 400 families of four, who currently lean on food pantries and other community faith-based organizations (CFBOs) for provisions, with the means to purchase a high-quality restaurant meal.
• Give the gift of a fun dining experience in Port.
The Community Chest will distribute the gift cards to the CFBOs which will give the gift cards to the families in-need. Please give as generously as you can.
Donations can be made here (on GoFundMe), directly by check to the Community Chest ("For Light & Love" in the subject line): 382 Main Street, PW, NY 11050 or through our Facebook fundraiser by clicking HERE
Thanks for your support!
Wishing you light and love,
Jill Carvajal, Bin Hu Laurence, and Diane Livingston
