Brookfield Football Players Spread Joy Through Giving This Holiday Season

The Brookfield High School Football program has adopted a family for Thanksgiving as a way to give back to the community.

The team also collected food and donated to the Brookfield food pantry. On Monday, football players Matthew Biondi and Gabe Pompette dropped off donations that were collected from the football families to Ellen Melville, Director of Senior and Social Services.

Brookfield football parent Michele Biondi said, “We want to show our appreciation to our wonderful town for their continued support of us. Happy Thanksgiving!”
