Carver participates in GE Norwalk Volunteers Day Party!

Several of GE’s closest community partners joined in a “Volunteers Fair” yesterday to tell some 1,200 GE employees at their 901 Main Avenue location about their respective organizations and how they can get involved in the Norwalk community.  GE's landlord BLT generously provided the space, refreshments and tent for the event.

There was a drawing among the GE employees – first prize was the privilege to direct a $500 GE charitable contribution to one of the agencies in their name.  Carver joined these other wonderful local charities: Open Door Center, Hope for Haiti, Norwalk Community College, Junior Achievement, Habitat for Humanity, Bridgeport Rescue Mission, and Special Olympics.  

      GE is an important Carver donor and in particular a major benefactor of Carver's after school STEAM education programming.

Moreover, many dozens of GE volunteers spend time with Carver kids each year.

THANK YOU, GE and GE EMPLOYEES for your wonderful support!
