This was part of the approximately $10,000 recently distributed to fourteen local organizations. The annual Phillanthropic Luncheon of The Woman’s Club of Larchmont, held this year on March 30, is the main fundraiser for these donations.

“We invited representatives of the agencies to an event earlier this year” Ms. Berridge said, “so club members could become more acquainted with the organizations and their services. We hope to continue these invitations in the future.”

The recipients in addition to the Community Counseling Center included The Cancer Support Team, The Community Resource Center, (formerly the Hispanic Resource Center), The Furniture Sharehouse, The Larchmont/Mamaroneck Hunger Task Force, Larchmont Friends of the Family, Larchmont/Mamaroneck Student Aid Fund, The Larchmont Public Library, My Sister’s Place, Sheldrake Environmental Center, Shore/I Care, Town of Mamaroneck Community Services, Volunteer Ambulance Corps, and Westchester Federation of Woman’s Clubs.
