Charitable Work & Community Involvement
Sandri, Inc. is proud to be a contributor in our community through various programs, organizations, and events. The following is a partial listing of some of the ways we here at Sandri try to give back.
SANdri Tot Adopt
Each year at Christmas, Sandri, Inc. puts together its Tot Adopt program benefiting local children and their families in need. With literally dozens of children on our list, the entire conference room at Sandri becomes lined with boxes and boxes of toys with boys and girls names on it. With everything from Barbie to Barney, Power Rangers to Pencils, we try to make each Christmas special for all of these kids. Sandri employees donate toys, their money, and their time to wrap and send out our very best Christmas wishes to those in need. The holidays are a time of giving, and we here at Sandri are proud to do just that. To be a part of our Tot Adopt program this year, please call (800) 628- 1900
Zeke the Philanthropooch
Zeke's Grill at Crumpin- Fox, so named for the stray dog adopted on the back deck one day in May, donates a part of its profits from sales and its clothing line to the Greenfield Area Animal Shelter to benefit other lost or given up animals.
"Long Time Meals on Wheels Supporter Honored"
"Long time Meals on Wheels supporter William Sandri, owner of Sandri, Inc. of Greenfield, was honored recently by the Western Massachusetts chapter of the National Society of Fundraising Executives, according to FCHCC Fund Development Director Cynthia Martowski. At a November 18 Philanthropy Day awards luncheon at the Springfield Marriot Hotel, Mr. Sandri was recognized as the 1997 Philanthropist of Distinction for Franklin County.
"Mr. Sandri is well- known in the local community for his many and generous contributions to such organizations as Big Brother/ Big Sister, Historic Deerfield, and the Greenfield Teen Center. Franklin County Home Care Corporation's Meals on Wheels program has also been a long- time recipient of Mr. Sandri's consideration, and we applaud NSFRE's selection of Mr. Sandri for this honor."
