God Bless. Italiani Sempre Avanti
A huge thank you to our incredible sponsors for supporting The Galbani Maryland Italian Festival presented by Jarrettsville Furniture Military Appreciation Night! 🇺🇸
Because of your generosity, we were able to host one of the most meaningful parts of the weekend — a powerful tribute to the brave men and women who serve our country. The Military Appreciation Tent was one of the best outfitted and most attended booths at the Festival. The heartfelt displays and comradery were incredibly well received by the military community.
Nearly 500 active duty, reservists, National Guard, and veterans joined us through our special discounted admission — a small gesture of gratitude for their service. We were also proud to distribute 500 commemorative Challenge Coins marking this unforgettable celebration.
In a moment of true impact, the Society of Italian American Businessmen presented a $10,000 donation to the Fisher House Foundation in support of a new Fisher House at the Perry Point VA Medical Center — ensuring continued support for military families in need.
To all who made this night possible — thank you for helping us honor courage, service, and sacrifice. 💙
