We were informed that 7 year old Matthew Compitello from Long Beach Township, NJ wanted a way to help families battling cancer during this holiday season. He created the event “Cookies & Cocoa for a Cure” and wanted to donate the proceeds to David’s dream and Believe Cancer Foundation. He served hot chocolate and dished out homemade chocolate chip cookies that his mom Amye baked for the event (Delicious!) to anybody that stopped by his Uncle Steve’s store seawall ARTifacts located at 7712 Long Beach Boulevard, Long Beach Township NJ. Matthew was visited by locals, guests that saw the event on social media and Matthew even received a special visit from Mayor Joe Mancini! Matthew raised a whopping $621.00. Way to go Matthew and Thank You!
