NORWICH – Dollars for Scholars, a volunteer organization that provides local students with scholarships to pursue post-secondary education is holding their annual Calendar Sale this month. The calendar features various historical Norwich community photos and landmarks.

Martha Brower-Ryan, public relations volunteer for Dollars for Scholars commented, “This is an excellent holiday gift idea and a very inexpensive gift to send to Norwich natives who have moved away from the area.” She also stated that all sales proceeds from the annual calendar sale go directly to the Dollars for Scholars fund to support more scholarships for local students pursuing college education.

The Dollars for Scholars calendars sell for $5 each and can be purchased at Service Pharmacy and First Edition Bookstore in downtown Norwich. “We thank the Service Pharmacy and First Edition for their continued support and for handling the retail part of our calendar program. These businesses strongly support our efforts and we are grateful for their commitment to our goals,” said Brower Ryan. A direct mail program is also available for individuals who wish to purchase calendars and the Dollars for Scholars sales committee will ship them directly, all for $7 per calendar. Requests for calendar mailing services should be forwarded to Betty Constable at jconst@roadrunner.com.
