Dear Editor:

On behalf of the Bentley University Residence Hall Association and Bentley Student Television, I would like to thank you for participating in Breakfast by Moonlight held on December 9, 2009. The event, first started in 1991, has been held 37 times and continues to be a great success with the Bentley community. Without your support, this event would not be nearly as successful as it was. We had a turnout of about 900 participants this year. Our turnout was way up from the spring, and those that attended the event ate enough for 1,200 students! Once again, the Bentley community showed that they really love their tater tots! All the money donated from the event’s entrance fees will be donated to a non-profit servicing the greater Waltham area. Due to the growing knowledge of Breakfast by Moonlight within the Bentley community, many come out not only for breakfast, but also for a greater good in the community.

This year we raised $2,350 for the Home for Little Wanderers, which is a place where children can come to find a safe, supportive environment. The Home for Little Wanderers does some truly amazing things that we want to contribute to, such as covering the cost of putting warm clothes in their closets, filling their backpacks with school supplies and sending some children to summer camp. It is also a place where the children can develop friendships and maintain a feeling of community. RHA and BSTV are very excited to be making a visible difference in our community by hosting just this one event on campus. Again I would like to thank you, because without you, our donation would not go as far as it does. We hope you are able to join us again in the spring for the 38th Breakfast by Moonlight!
Thank you,
Marc Santilli
President, RHA
