I am writing to highlight an inspiring collaboration between local Colchester artist Cecilia Peterson and Sweet Aroma Coffee House and Bakery. Together, they are working to make a difference for the children of the ALCL Orphanage in Liberia.
Ms. Peterson has generously donated her artwork to Sweet Aroma’s, located at 139 S Main St, Colchester, where all proceeds from the sale of her photographs will go directly to support the orphanage. This is a wonderful opportunity for our community to support a great cause while enjoying beautiful, locally produced art.
Additionally, she has contributed several of her paintings to the upcoming “Feeding the Future” Gala hosted by Mercy Manna Global on October 19, 2024 being held at Orchid Hospitality in Hamden. This event will raise funds for critical global hunger relief efforts. Those interested in attending can find more information and purchase tickets at www.MercyMannaGlobal.org.
Please join me in supporting Cecilia Peterson’s heartfelt efforts to bring hope and care to vulnerable children both here and abroad.
