Longtime Westport resident Amy Schafrann writes:
I was walking with a friend on Clapboard Hill Road. Two boys — George and Ford Nanos — on the corner of Taylor Lane were offering hot cider.
We had no cash with us. They very kindly offered it for free.
I asked the boys which charity they were collecting for. The older one, George, said, “Boston Children’s Hospital. That’s where I was treated for a brain tumor.”
He said he’s done this with his brother, and friends Jake and Tyler, for a few weeks. They’ve raised several hundred dollars.

This truly touched my heart.
Of course, I went back to donate money. What amazing boys!
