Fort Adams Trust Nominated For $10K Giveway By Middletown D'Angelo

NEWPORT, RI — D'Angelo Grilled Sandwiches is giving up to $10,000 donations to community nonprofits, and Middletown's local sub shop nominated the Fort Adams Trust in Newport.

"Our restaurants have always been based in community, and we're thrilled to launch a program that ultimately donates $55,000 to neighborhoods that have supported us for decades," said D'Angelo CEO Tom Sterrett. "This Giveaway provides a great opportunity not only for guests to rally behind their community organizations and enter for a chance to win $1,000, but for D’Angelo to continue its tradition of giving back to the neighborhoods we’re so proud to serve. We hope guests get out and vote, and we can’t wait to see which organizations and guests take home the prizes!"

The Fort Adams Trust protects the nearly 200-year-old Fort Adams army post and state park, as well as nearby historic sites and public spaces around Newport and the Narragansett Bay area.

The nominations come directly from local D'Angelo restaurants. The Middletown location at 401 West Main Road nominated the Fort Adams Trust, which is now one of 45 organizations competing for the giveaway.

Residents can help the Fort Adams Trust win by voting on the restaurant's website. Voting runs until July 24.
