Entertaining for Education is a monthlong event to help the Westwood Educational Foundation promote community spirit though enrichment opportunities for Westwood residents. This annual October celebration involves residents hosting parties at which guests make private donations to the cause. Hosts make their own invitation lists and choose what sort of party to have. Anyone who would like to participate this year should respond by Sept. 10 to Andi Yanoff at 617-694-4464, or by e-mailing [email protected]
