Description
The Board of Directors of United Way of Western Connecticut cordially invites you to our 5th Annual Hometown Heroes Benefit Dinner.
Proceeds from this event will support the ALICE Enrichment Fund, United Way's fund to offset the costs of enrichment activities for children from struggling families. A growing body of research points to an "activity gap" between students from lower-income households and their more affluent peers. These children have fewer opportunities to develop interests, skills, habits, connections, and knowledge to fuel success both in the classroom and out.

Help us ensure that no child goes hungry in our communities.Proceeds from this event will support United Way’s food security initiatives, including our evening Mobile Food Pantry, the Groceries on Wheels (GROW) Truck, weekend food backpacks for hungry children, and our latest healthy savings nutrition incentives pilot program. Data shows that 17% of Connecticut children live in food-insecure households. We know that food is the budget item over which struggling households have the most discretion. Generally, families can’t lower their housing or transportation costs, but can choose to skip meals or buy inexpensive, less-healthy food. This leads to long-term health consequences and negative impacts on children’s performance in school.
