Harry’s Wine & Liquor Market of Fairfield celebrated a recent donation to Operation Hope with a check presentation ceremony on Nov. 8. Through Harry’s 10th annual Rare Bottles whiskey fundraiser held throughout the month of October, $62,275 was raised through event proceeds, Amazon Wishlist donors, silent auction bidders, a reverse auction and individual donors. “You’ve made a real difference for our shared community,” said Patrick Monteleone. “We are thankful for your kindness. We would also like to offer our gratitude to Carla and her team for their tireless work supporting our community every day.” Operation Hope gives more than 123,000 meals per year to the community through its Food Pantry.
