South Shore Computer Repair

On December 2, 2009 the Kiwanis Club, the Middleboro High School Key Club and the Nichols Middle School Builders Club are sponsoring a “Eat to Heat” event at the Middleboro Council on Aging Center.

The Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world, one child and one community, at a time. This year’s event includes the raffle of a “giving tree” that will raise funds to go towards scholarships for local student and/or sponsor a family in need this holiday season.

To purchase a ticket, call Key Club advisor Pat Bettencourt at 508.946.2010, extension 104. Tickets can also be purchased from Kiwanis President Sonya Gallo, at the Mayflower Cooperative Bank or at the Council on Aging.

South Shore Computer Repair is just one of many local businesses that has donated items for the “Eat to Heat” raffle event. Please join us in supporting this terrific organization that provides support to many of your neighbors and friends.

Future Of Middleborough Trust 500-Piece Puzzles!

The Future of Middleborough Trust (FOMT) was formed in 2008 by a group of concerned  citizens is now a tax-exempt charitable organization. The mission of FOMT is to work help the people of Middleborough stay safe and and enjoy our wonderful community.

Middleborough has a diverse population and rich history. But we also have rising numbers of incidences of illnesses like autism, Alzheimers, Downs Syndrome and other maladies. One of the side effects of these illnesses is the tendency of the patient to wander off and become disoriented and lost.

With this in mind, FOMT’s first project is the implementation of PROJECT LIFESAVER in the Town of Middleborough. In order to implement PROJECT LIFESAVER, the Future of Middleborough Trust is raising money with the sale of a 500-piece jigsaw puzzle.

The puzzle is a beautiful photograph, taken in May 2005, of Middleborough’s Veterans Memorial Park with our historic – and possibly haunted? – town hall in the background. The puzzles are $15.00 a piece and make the perfect gift for the puzzle fanatics in your circle of friends and family.

South Shore Computer Repair is proud to be helping FOTM with the sale of these puzzles in our store. We have a puzzle displayed in our store window so be sure to stop by and take a look. Once you’re ready to buy – and in the process, support this phenomenal effort by FOTM – come on into the shop on Wednesdays between 11:00 AM and 6:00 PM or Saturdays from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. All proceeds from the puzzle sales will go directly to the Future of Middleborough Trust and PROJECT LIFESAVER!

You can read all about this project in the November 26, 2009 issue of the Middleborough Gazette…
