Dearborn Mayor O’Reilly Meets Lucky Teens

By Ahmed al-Hilali, TMO

Who wouldn’t want to meet Mayor O’Reilly of Dearborn? Well there were some lucky teens-including myself- that had the amazing opportunity to meet our mayor on March 14. At the Park Place Banquet on Outer Drive, there was an appreciation dinner for the Goodfellows Foundation; the Mayor himself came in and showed his appreciation. For those of you who don’t know, the Goodfellows Foundation is a Non-Profit Organization that helps financially difficult families during the holidays; specifically the children of those families. This is to let them know that they are not forgotten. ACCESS Acts, a teen Youth Group whose only goal is to serve the community, was one of the main helpers this Christmas. Together, we raised more than 400 dollars to go to helping children in Dearborn wake up to a gift-filled Christmas.
