A Big Shout-Out to Ristorante Renato
Not only did they prepare 30 holiday baskets filled with toys for families in need, but they also stepped up in a big way within minutes. On Monday, when FCPS reached out to several groups with a request for 15 coats for students, the Renato’s team committed to purchasing all of them—and delivered them in no time!
Thank you Ristorante Renato for your generosity, kindness, and for making a real difference this holiday season!
