Dear Fellow Skalleagues:

It’s time for Boston Skalleagues to come together as we have in December for so many years to celebrate the spirit of the holiday season enjoying friendship, food, drink and some laughter, while making a positive impact on the lives of others.

The International Skal Club of Boston will hold its Holiday Luncheon live at The Colonnade Boston on Friday, December 17, 2021. As in the past, we will conduct a raffle along with silent and live auctions to raise money for this year’s worthy recipient, the New England Center & Home for Veterans (NECHV). www.nechv.org

NECHV is located in Downtown Boston. Its mission is to equip Veterans who are facing or at-risk of homelessness with the tools for economic self-sufficiency and to provide them a path to achieve successful and dignified independent living. A service and care provider for former military service men and women, NECHV offers a broad array of programs and services that enable success, reintegration, meaningful employment and independent living.

This year, with your assistance, Skal Club of Boston will be there to support their efforts.  All funds raised on December 17th will go directly to New England Center & Home for Veterans.

While our attendance will be limited this year, we can still make a significant impact on behalf of NECHV. Our industry has been harder hit than any other and many of our associates have lost so much. If you have the ability to assist our efforts this year, please consider donating an item for our Raffle, Silent or Live Auctions to benefit our veterans.

Thank you for considering this request, and I look forward to seeing you in-person on Friday, December 17th!

Yours in Skal,

David Colella
