7th Annual Pasta Dinner & Basket Raffle

The Community Service Association of New Providence (CSA) , together with the New Providence Lions Club, will host the 7th Annual Pasta Dinner & Basket Raffle on Sunday, March 1, 2020. This fun, family-friendly event will take place at the DeCorso Community Center, 15 East Fourth Street, New Providence, NJ. A feast of pasta, salad, and dessert will be served from 3pm-7pm. Tickets are $15 per person; children five and under are free. Cash and checks will be accepted at the door. The snow date is Sunday, March 8, 2020. The Community Service Association of New Providence is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides temporary assistance to New Providence residents with financial needs while respecting the dignity and anonymity of the individuals and families. This could mean helping a family with medical bills, paying utility bills or rent, clothing assistance, transportation, and more. The CSA also works with New Providence's Boy Scouts/Cub Scouts and Faith Lutheran Church on the annual, town-wide Scouting for Food drive and also organizes a Christmas gift drive for its client families. "Our annual Pasta Dinner & Basket Raffle is not just a fun get-together with great food and prizes; it's our main fundraising event for the year," said CSA President Illya D'Addezio. "We are excited to have a huge variety of baskets as well as a generous 50/50 drawing for everyone to enjoy." The CSA was established in 1954 and is believed by longtime members to be the first organization of its kind in the country. New Providence residents who would like to get involved are welcome to the CSA meetings on the second Wednesday of each month. Residents in need of the CSA's help, or anyone wishing to get involved in supporting or volunteering, can call (908) 665-8254 or email csanewprovidence@gmail.com.
