Wonder Where Those Coins Go?
Question: Do you ever wonder where all of those coins go that you throw into fountains at your local shopping mall?
 Answer: The Willow Grove Park Fountain, located at the Willow Grove Mall just a few miles from the DVC office, donated coins collected from the mall fountain to the Delaware Valley Chapter!! The total collected was $422.55. A great big “thank you” to Ashlyn Martin, Assistant Marketing Director and PREIT (Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust Property) for making our Chapter the recipient!! What a generous contribution!!! Fantaaaaaaaaaaastic!! |
