On August 10, the Foundation will host its 34th Annual Charitable Golf Tournament at Charter Oak Country Club.

At the end of the year, the Foundation will celebrate giving funds back to the community at its annual Grants Celebration Dinner held on December 10 at the Wayside Inn.

Throughout 2015, the 200 Foundation will be selling raffle tickets for a chance to win a 2015 Jeep Wrangler.

Adam Bortolussi, President of the Board of Directors of The 200 Foundation, Inc., expects 2015 to be a year of awakening for The 200 Foundation.

“Last year our Board redoubled their efforts to assist the community and the results are starting to show the impact The 200 Foundation has within our communities,” said Bortolussi, in a statement. “We are welcoming new members, have a new website in the works and most importantly our 100% all volunteer based Board of Directors has increased their efforts to assist members of our community that are in need.”

Bortolussi also spoke of the camaraderie and bond that The 200 Foundation Board has - “Our Board is a family of sorts, where everyone has the common goal of assisting others.”
