Hundreds of students, parents and school staff attended a fundraising event in February at The Gelato Fiasco’s flagship store in Brunswick. Student musicians entertained the crowd and two Morse teachers, Johnna and Brian Stanton, acted as “celebrity scoopers.”
The event was part of The Gelato Fiasco’s Scooping for Community program, which helps support local schools and nonprofit organizations in the communities served by The Gelato Fiasco in Cumberland County. Since October 2012, the company says it has donated more than $4,000 through the program.
The Gelato Fiasco will continue to host Scooping for Community days throughout April and May. Upcoming events will help raise money for the Portland-based nonprofit A Company of Girls, Falmouth High School and Friends School of Portland.
