Candy Donation Thank You
The following message is from the Wellesley Dental Group regarding the Candy Donation:
Hello,
Hope you're enjoying this beautiful fall weather. On behalf of the caring team at Wellesley Dental Group and the Ali family, I would like to thank you for your participation in this year's Candy Drive and continued support. Schools and organizations that foster coming together as a community and celebrating the spirit of generosity are the reason why the drive was so successful (this year, we had close to 40 schools/organizations donate 8,600 pounds of candy!) We applaud your efforts. Without you, this would not have been possible!We welcome your feedback and suggestions on how to improve this experience and look forward to working with you in future drives.
Best,
Femina Ali
