United Way- Northeast Central Connecticut. Covers 40 Towns, Invests in Education, transition into kindergarted, middle school and high school. Working with towns to provide food to communities for the needy. Also involved with domestic violence in each community.
Twenty five percent of household are led by someone 65 years old or older. The average income for CT residents for a family of four is $66,000-$74,000 to qualify for United Way assistance.
We divided into teams of two and three and did a case study that was very enlightening. There are many CT residents that have a hard time making ends meet because of the high cost of living in the state.
Respectfully Submitted,
