Ways to help Sandy Hook victims

In light of yesterday's tragedy, the United Way of Western Connecticut has launched a fundraiser to benefit families of the Sandy Hook school shooting.

United Way of Western Connecticut is committed to providing support and resources where and when they become identified and needed. As people from our area and beyond respond to this heartbreaking tragedy, they are turning to United Way looking for ways to help. In response, United Way of Western Connecticut in partnership with Newtown Savings Bank has created the 'Sandy Hook School Support Fund' that will be able to provide support services to the families and community that has been affected.

For more information about the fundraiser and to donate by credit card, please visit https://newtown.uwwesternct.org/.
