They got your community service right here. Bensonhurst's Federation of Italian-American Organizations celebrated local activism during a fund-raiser gala at Mill Basin catering hall El Caribe on April 12. The organization celebrated 40 years of community service and honored folks who have contributed to their neighborhoods, the Federation's head honcho said.
"The gala was an extraordinarily successful celebration of service to the community," said Federation chairman Jack Spatola. The cultural organization patted itself on the back for the social services, after-school programs, and economic development initiatives it has spearheaded, but it also recognized other community members who gave back in a big way.
