DPW FOOD DRIVE FOR OPERATION HOPE, MAY 18-24

Starting today, our Town’s DPW is joining hundreds of Public Works teams from across New England to collect food and household goods to support local community food bank needs. Help us help our neighbors and friends. Look for the Town’s DPW “trucks” – collection boxes that will be located in the Town Clerk’s office at Old Town Hall, the vestibules of Sullivan Independence Hall, the information desk at Fairfield Police, Fairfield Recreation, the Bigelow Senior Center, and both Fairfield Public Library locations. Thank you!

GIVE HOPE

Many of our neighbors in need are a paycheck or life situation away from losing their home. The impact of homelessness is huge. In this fragile economic environment, this can happen anywhere and to anyone. Help us make our neighbors’ experience of homelessness rare, brief and one time.
