Donations sought for Mayotte benefit raffle

BRATTLEBORO — Organizers are seeking donations for an event next month to memorialize a Guilford man and raise money for the education of his three children.

The family members organizing the event are seeking donations for the Charles Mayotte Memorial Fundraiser, which will take place Saturday, Sept. 28 from 3 to 7 p.m. at the Marina, 28 Spring Tree Rd.

As described by a news release, the fund will benefit the three children of Charles “Chuckie” Mayotte - Alex, Ethan, and Isabella - by providing the means for them to further their education or trade beyond high school.

The restaurant will donate and serve appetizers. A cash bar will be available.

All donations will be raffled through the event, with the final drawing and a 50/50 raffle taking place at 6:30 p.m.

Monetary donations will go directly to the Memorial Fund. Checks, made payable to “Charles A. Mayotte Jr. Memorial Fund,” can be contributed at the event or given to Mayotte's father, Chuck Mayotte Sr., his sister, Dana (Mayotte) Castor, or his brother, Adam Mayotte.

Mayotte, who died unexpectedly Jan. 26 at age 38, worked with his father at Mayotte's Tree Service.

In addition to the financial support, “You are offering much-needed support to a family who is trying to keep Chuckie's memory alive,” the family writes.

For more information, contact Chuck Mayotte Sr. at 802-258-0500 or icuttreez@comcast.net.
