BWP Contributes to the CT Trial Lawyers Association Women’s Caucus Fundraiser

This holiday season, the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association (CTLA) Women’s Caucus is organizing a drive to benefit BHcare, a regional nonprofit organization that provides a comprehensive and integrated system of care for adults, children and families who are struggling with mental health issues, substance use issues and domestic violence. The BHcare family of services includes: The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services, Parent Child Resource Center, and Alliance for Prevention and Wellness.

You can help fight the battle against domestic violence by donating to My Sister’s Place – a unique family thrift shop located in Ansonia, CT, that is run by BHcares. The shop sells new or “gently used” clothing, furniture, and household items to the public at discount prices. We are looking for items to donate to My Sister’s Place including quality new and/or “gently used” family clothing and shoes, appliances, housewares, small furniture, toys, holiday decorations and many other similar items.

BHcare also provides vouchers to the victims of domestic violence that they work with so that they can get a fresh start at My Sister’s Place after experiencing life altering events.

Please consider donating any of the above unwanted but quality items for this worthy cause (please note that they do not accept stuffed animals or infant car seats due to health and safety regulations).

Or consider a donation and make check payable to: BH Care and Write in Memo “My Sister’s Place”.
