#GivingTuesday: Emily Fedorko Foundation Announces Pledge of Support Towards Restoration of Greenwich Point’s “Chimes Tower”

#GivingTuesday is coming up on Nov 27 and the Emily Catherine Fedorko Foundation has some wonderful news to share – to coincide with the philanthropic movement.

The Foundation has pledged to support to help fund the restoration of Greenwich Point’s historic Chimes Tower, built in 1901 as part of the Chimes Building.

Through this partnership with The Greenwich Conservancy, the physical chimes and their intricate mechanisms will be restored to their melodic glory and will honor Emily Fedorko’s life, being named “Emily’s Chimes.” Additionally, a new water safety center will be established at the Chimes Tower, in partnership with the Foundation, to educate the community about the importance of water and boating safety.
