ACS sells chili as part of sold-out fundraiser

By Ron Giofu

Amherstburg Community Services (ACS) raised some money for themselves and satisfied the taste buds of chili lovers in town as well.

ACS held its annual take-out chili fundraiser last Thursday with chili being picked up out of a rear window at ACS.

Three crews of volunteers were dropped off at area businesses.

“We actually sold out,” said ACS executive director Kathy DiBartolomeo. “The goal was 200 and we sold out.”

The Meals on Wheels kitchen, which operates under ACS’s umbrella, created a Texas-style chili while two other partnerships also benefitted the event. Culinary students from North Star High School contributed a vegetarian chili while the AMA Sportsmen Association donated a deer burger chili.

Members of the Windsor Police Service – Amherstburg Detachment were also on hand helping to serve the chili along with the eight volunteer helpers from ACS.

The meal cost $10 with proceeds from the event benefitting programming at ACS.
