Ansonia Mayor David Cassetti congratulated Meghan Bosworth, a 9‑year-old student at Prendergast School, for her ingenuity and spirit of volunteerism.
Meghan decorated and placed collection boxes in key areas around the City of Ansonia, including City Hall, to help raise money for the City’s Animal Shelter.
Meghan hand crafted the signs placed on the boxes and helped spread the word regarding the need for food, blankets and toys for the abandoned animals at the Ansonia Animal Shelter.
Mayor Cassetti met with Jeannie Roslonowski Ansonia’s Animal Control Officer and Meghan to distribute the donations Dec. 30.
“Meghan is a caring, bright young girl who took it upon herself to try to help animals in need,” Cassetti said in a prepared statement. “The best part about what she did was that it was her own idea and was motivated by her genuine desire to help homeless dogs and cats during the coldest months of the year. I admire her compassion and drive.”
Meghan Bosworth is a straight A student in the 4th grade at Prendergast School in Ansonia.
