A letter to the editor expresses a reader's opinion and, as such, is not reflective of the editorial opinions of this newspaper.
To submit a letter to the editor for publishing, send an email to viewpoints@capegazette.com. All letters are considered at the discretion of the newsroom and published as space allows. Due to the large volume of submissions, we cannot acknowledge receipt of each submission. Letters must include a phone number and address for verification. Keep letters to 400 words or fewer. We reserve the right to edit for content or length. Letters should be responsive to issues addressed in the Cape Gazette rather than content from other publications or media. Letters should focus on local issues, not national topics or personalities. Only one letter per author will be published every 30 days regarding a particular topic. Authors may submit a second letter within that time period if it pertains to a different issue. Letters may not be critical of personalities or specific businesses. Criticism of public figures is permissible. Endorsement letters for political candidates are no longer accepted. Letters must be the author’s original work, and may not be generated by artificial intelligence tools. Templates, form letters and letters containing language similar to other submissions will not be published.
Paradise Pub in Long Neck recently sponsored its fourth annual Wing Competition. The Home of the Brave was selected to receive the proceeds. We are ecstatic about the amount of support we received from the community.
The initial total was $6,000, and Jeff Garrison of Garrison Homes asked those in attendance to dig deeper. Once all was said and done, Garrison Homes matched donations with $10,000 for a total of over $20,000.
We wish to thank Al Tortello, Barbara Ann Racine Kerezsi, the staff at Paradise Pub, Jeff Garrison and everyone who was involved in this amazing event. We cannot begin to name each person and organization that took part, but we want to say as a nonprofit, your generosity is imperative to providing unparalleled transitional services to homeless veterans throughout Delaware and beyond. We could not do what we do so successfully for over 30 years without the continued support of our community.
