-- Chelsea Financial Services is proud to partner again this year with Project Hospitality for their Annual 2020 Thanksgiving Food Drive to help benefit Staten Island community members in need this holiday season.
“Last year’s Thanksgiving Food Drive for Project Hospitality was a great success.” said Christopher (Chris) Vetrano, Registered Representative at Chelsea Financial Services. “Project Hospitality is a great organization that not only orchestrates this amazing food drive for our neighbors and homeless in need; they also do year-round community outreach, education and youth programs to help improve the lives of those going through difficult times.”
