We are forever grateful to the 107 donors who so generously responded to Fairfield County’s Giving Day appeal on Thursday, February 24th. Your gifts totaling $7, 715 will support our 11 summer 2022 programs serving approximately 1,000 Norwalk youth in grades K to 9.
Carver placed 32nd out of more than 400 participating Fairfield County charities in the number of gifts received. Carver also received a $500 prize for our Black History Month essay. Fairfield County’s Giving Day is powered by Fairfield County’s Community Foundation and Bank of America is the annual Champion Sponsor of the Giving Day.
Carver’s summer programs offer Norwalk youth engaging, hands-on learning experiences and transformative enrichment and wellness opportunities. Carver youth receive social-emotional support and the preparation they need to thrive in the upcoming school year. Carver summer programs give our youth a sense of community and develop intergenerational relationships.
