NORWICH – Nina's Pizzeria raised $7,000 last week after sponsoring an event for Toy-for-Tots.
The “dinner and movie” event was deemed a great success by organizer Lon Yerton after doubling what the event made last year.
Yerton is the head waiter at the restaurant, located along South Broad Street in Norwich.
“Between toys and sponsored donations and the cash we took in, it was about $7000 dollars total. There were 400 toys on the bus and with the cash we took in we bought more toys.”
