The Cardinal Shehan Center held its annual fundraising dinner in Stratford Wednesday.

For the ninth year in a row, News 12 Connecticut's Frank Recchia was the master of ceremonies for the event at Vazanno's Four Seasons.

"The Great Shehan Trivia Contest" raises thousands of dollars to support the nonprofit.

"It was such a great turnout. We had an awesome time to raise funds for the after school and Saturday program for the Cardinal Shehaan Center," said Lorraine Gibbons, with the nonprofit.

M&T Bank was the presenting sponsor for the event.
