Candy will provide funds for autism

Philadelphia Candies is supporting Mahoning Valley families affected by autism with its annual “Sweet Pieces for Autism” campaign in honor of National Austism Awareness Month.

Customers who visit the Hermitage or Boardman retail locations can purchase a 1.5-ounce chocolate puzzle pop now through Saturday, and the proceeds will be donated to the Autism Society of Mahoning Valley.

Families and organizations that are interested in gifting, buying or selling chocolates in support of the Autism Society’s many programs can preorder puzzle-pieces and chocolate pops by contacting the Autism Society of Mahoning Valley at 330-333-9609 or autismmv.gmail.com.
