Around the holidays especially, so many of us have organizations – or causes – we like to support in any way we can, whether it’s by giving our time or money. Some of these causes may be ones near and dear to our hearts for personal reasons, while others are just focused on a mission we believe in, and want to stand for. Out here in Fairfield County, there are a tremendous number of incredible organizations that are always looking for additional support. So, in case you are wondering if there are organizations locally where you – and maybe even your children – can provide support this holiday season – or anytime really – we have put together the following list.
PLEASE contact us at info@westportmoms.com with any others you would like to see added. With love, M&M
