A Christmas display in Dutchess County is helping
to light up the holiday season in more ways than one.
For the last several years,
the Fortis family home on Fairfax Road in Fishkill has been using its holiday display to give back to others.
Visitors come by, enjoy the
lights, and give financial support for breast cancer patients, cancer research,
and more. "Whether
they're leaving donations or coming by to get a candy cane from my husband, who
gives every car a candy cane, you know what, we're here to just lift the
spirits and put the hope back into people's hearts this year," says cancer
survivor Dawn Fortis.
The light display is
available every day from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. until Jan. 6. And you can enjoy the
Christmas music in the comfort of your own car by tuning in your radio to a designated station.
