Letter to the Editor: Giving Thanks to Jean Cobelli & The Enchanted Garden

On behalf of the SPHERE Board of Directors and all of our SPHERE Members, our heartfelt thanks go to Jean Cobelli and The Enchanted Garden Dance Studios for their generosity of time, talent and the full proceeds of their event, Nuts About The Nutcracker to our organization.  This community fundraiser was a triumphant success and we are so appreciative of your support!

To the dancers, volunteers and staff - we are so grateful for your commitment to SPHERE and our members. The $25,000 raised on our behalf will allow us to further our member programming and sustain our transportation for our members and our daily programming for our over 60 SPHERE members.

Thank you to our sponsors Debbie Orr of the Home Vision Group, Dr. Allan Philips, Fairfield County Bank, the Berisford Family, Ciota Legal Group, Gallo Ristorante, Colonial Cleaners, HamletHub, Winter Brothers Waste Management, Ridgefield Dental Care, Olley Court, Montanari Fuel Service, Ancient Mariner, Ridgefield Apartments, and Dimitri's Diner.  Support of our mission through event sponsorships such as these allows us the flexibility we need to grow our mission of improving the lives of adults with disabilities through cultural, artistic and social activities and interactions.  

We are blessed to be based in the Town of Ridgefield, and thank our many supporters for your continued support and enthusiasm for SPHERE.

Lori Berisford

President & Board Chair, SPHERE
