Making a Mighty Impact!

Portland resident Carlotta Lord has been named a Top Ten Finalist in Auntie Anne’s Pretzels “MiniActs Make A Mighty Impact” contest.  Mary Flood nominated her for the work she does collecting, sorting and mailing grocery coupons to military families around the globe.  Carlotta had been doing this on her own for some time when it was suggested that she enlist Portland seniors to help her.

Residents of Chatham Court have also helped with the effort.  The result has been savings of thousands of dollars for service families. Now that she is a top ten finalist it is time for online voting.  Please visit www.miniactsmightimpact.com and vote for Carlotta until June 30.   Multiple votes are permitted so please vote early and vote often!  Let your MiniAct of voting have a Mighty Impact for Carlotta and our military families!
