LIGHT REFRESHMENTS WILL BE SERVED
Three years ago we decided to replace our annual Newtown luncheon with a fundraising initiative called Democrats Care. As important as the fellowship and outreach of the September luncheon was, our board decided it was more valuable to invest in worthy organizations in the Newtown community. In 2017, thanks to the donations of our members and friends, we distributed $5,000 in grocery store gift cards to help our neighbors recover from Hurricane Irma. Last year we gave $6000 to SOAR Learning Center, Kuttin’ Up Barber Shop, and to the good work of activist Greg Cruz.
This year our board worked closely with leadership from Newtown to select the two recipient organizations. Please join us as we raise money for Truly Valued, Inc. and Operation Jump Start. Please click on the links below for details on why these organizations were chosen and then on the DONATE button to make your contribution.
