📣 Throughout this month, all Livoti's Old World Market locations will be asking customers if they’d like to round up and donate to the NJBCA.

Thank you to Bill Anania for performing at one of our recent camps! Besides being a talented musician, Anania is also the Board President at the Middletown Arts Center and runs their singer/songwriter programs. 🎶

In addition to Anania’s amazing performance, one of our volunteers brought in her service dog. Hannah definitely brought a paw-sitive vibe to Camp Happiness! 🐾
