DORCHESTER — On this St. Patrick’s Day 2018, more than 100 people will gather at St. Teresa of Calcutta Church to raise money and support for the Mary Ann Brett Food Pantry named for Bill Brett’s mother.

The breakfast, which last year raised more than $100,000, is hosted by Jim Brett. The entire Brett family, including Bill and Jim’s siblings Peggy, Mary, and Harry, Jim’s wife, Pattie, work together to organize the event.

We’ll update this posting later with news from the breakfast.
