Founders teams up with Blue Jean Fridays for Summer Dream Fund!!

UPDATE!! Sora Garlasco and her Leadership NW Team raised over $2000 for the Summer Dream Fund sending 8 children to camp! Thank you to everyone who supported the cause!

Team Founders Members are donning jeans on Friday to help kids make it to camp this summer! Although it is cold outside now, summer is rapidly approaching and for many children that means summer camp. Yet for some children, the dream of going to camp will never become a reality. Through the Northwest Chamber's Leadership Northwest Program, the Summer Dream Fund has been developed to specifically send children to the Rising Star YMCA camp. The members of the Leadership Class are encouraging businesses like Founders to collect monies via Blue Jeans Friday and are also collecting donations from local businesses and throughout the community.

All monetary donations are tax deductable by making checks payable to:

Northwest CT Chamber Education Fund
