Kiwanis Club illuminates HB ’Tis the season for giving, and the Kiwanis Club of Howard Beach extended its generosity toward the community by donating $1,000 to Howard Beach Hope, Inc. The founder of the nonprofit, Doreen DeCandida, seen above with Kiwanis members Tony Sama, left, Steve Sirgiovanni and Joe DeMarco, will use the donation to bring holiday spirit to Cross Bay Boulevard in the form of holiday lights and music. Howard Beach Hope first brought the

lights back to Cross Bay in 2019, and before that, the boulevard had not seen the holiday lights in more than 10 years. “Such a warm sentimental feeling seeing Cross Bay illuminated avenue to avenue with beautiful lighting, bringing the warmth and memories of this community from many years ago. Some traditions need financing to remain viable,” the group wrote on Facebook. — Kristen Guglielmo
