On October 15th, 2011, the Aid for Orphans Relief Foundation presented its ideas and goals to a large Polish-American audience gathered at the Polish National Home in Hartford, Connecticut for the annual Miss

Polonia Connecticut Paegant. Dr. Margaret Chustecka, founder and managing director of AORF, gave a speech, which was followed by a short performance of the exceptionally talented, young violin v

irtuosos, Ania and Piotr Filochowski – supporters of AORF. Several of their CD’s were sold that evening, and all proceeds were donated to AORF. The event was organized by Ms. Bogumila Gladysz, a person of great warmth and kindness. It was a memorable event, hopefully bringing greater awareness to the Connecticut community about the issues we care about at AORF.
