Top 5 Things to do in Greenwich - Greenwich Sentinel

(1) Order a BEC and Support the Tyler G Foundation

7:00am to 6:00pm @ Garden Catering

The Tyler G Foundation is partnering with Garden Catering to raise awareness about addiction. Tyler G was a son, brother, best friend, football player and role model in the Greenwich community. He loved to make people laugh and feel included, and he loved a good ol’ BEC, topped with cones and honey mustard! After a serious football injury required a painkiller prescription, Tyler became addicted and after battling for years, eventually lost his life to an overdose.

On Tuesday, June 18 (Tyler’s birthday), stop by your favorite local Garden Catering and order Tyler’s favorite sandwich (a BEC with cones and honey mustard) and 100% of proceeds will go towards the Tyler G Foundation’s mission of helping those suffering from addiction by increasing local education initiatives, facilitating family resource programs and financing addiction recovery.
