Edesia gets $5K donation

PROVIDENCE – The American Contract Bridge League Charitable Foundation presented $5,000 to Edesia Global Nutrition Solutions.
The nonprofit aims to reduce childhood malnutrition in developing countries worldwide. The presentation was made during the WaterFire Providence activities on Nov. 28.
The Fall North American Bridge Championships hosted by the league began on Thanksgiving Day and ran through Dec. 7 at the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence. The fall championships mark the final of three annual tournaments that bring together thousands of the world’s best bridge players.
Prior to each of the three championships per year, the ACBL Charitable Foundation works with local bridge clubs and players in the host cities to identify a deserving cause. For NABC Providence, the Foundation chose Edesia Global Nutrition Solutions.
“The ACBL prides itself on giving back to the community,” says ACBL CEO Robert Hartman. “Our Providence-area members made us aware of this great organization and we’re happy to support its mission to reduce childhood malnutrition across the globe.”
