Scholarships and Holidays Celebrated by Sons & Daughters of Italy
It's college scholarship application time!
The Wakefield Sons & Daughters of Italy are pleased to announce that applications are being accepted for their annual college scholarships. The Massachusetts Grand Lodge offers several scholarships to graduating high school seniors. Two scholarships are earmarked go to local students at one of Wakefield’s high schools. The application and details can be found at the following link: http://www.osiama.org/scholarships. Graduating seniors are invited to apply by February 1, 2020.
The Wakefield Lodge plans fun activities throughout the year. Part of the fun involves welcoming new members and raising money for the scholarships. Recently the lodge met at the Wakefield Elks for a pre-Christmas party with Chinese food from Jade Gourmet, delicious desserts from members, and a door prize.
After breaking for January and February, their next meeting will be on Tuesday, March 10 at Laurie’s 909 on New Salem Street. Anyone curious about joining is welcome to attend and meet other members without any obligation or commitment. So, if you like to eat, play, do charitable work, etc. we would love to meet you. For information about joining, contact President Adriana at wakefieldosia@gmail.com, and/or visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/wakefieldOSIA/ for more details. Felice Anno Nuovo!
