Madison Foundation Seeks Support To Help Newtown

This information was provided by The Madison Foundation:

The morning of December 14 is one we will not soon forget. The senseless violence at Sandy Hook Elementary School has a nation in mourning. Our hearts go out to the victims, their families, and the entire Newtown community.

In a town so similar in population, demographics, and quality of life, many in Madison are asking how they can make a donation of hope.

The Madison Foundation, after much discussion with both Madison and Newtown Youth & Family Services, has determined that funds are needed for grief counseling and support services for the families and community affected by the shooting. The Madison Foundation welcomes your contribution to support this effort. One hundred percent of all funds the Foundation collects for this purpose will be given to Newtown Youth & Family Services.

Donations to support this immediate and ongoing need in the Newtown community can be made:

• Online at www.themadisonfoundation.org   (please write “Newtown” in the dedication box)
• Or by mail to The Madison Foundation, P.O. Box 446, Madison, CT 06443 (please write “Newtown” on your check)

Please note that The Madison Foundation is not affiliated with Newtown Youth & Family Services. The Madison Foundation is reaching out and responding to the Madison community’s desire for a meaningful way to help the Newtown families and community.
