As many of you know, our president and CEO, Julie Loughran, will be retiring in just a few weeks. In honor of Julie's dedication to our community, we invite you to make a special gift in her name. Julie has passionately worked to ensure our 21-town region is a place where everyone can thrive. Your gift to the Second Century Fund will help provide the Foundation with the resources needed to tackle community challenges for generations to come. Thanks to generous leadership donors, every donation will be matched dollar-for-dollar! Let's celebrate Julie's legacy by continuing her mission to strengthen our community. https://lnkd.in/drwX4z7a #waterburyct #litchfieldhills #connecticut #donatetoday
