Wilton PBA Movember Fundraiser
Donazione protetta
The Wilton Police Benevolent Association will be participating in a fundraiser from November 2016 – January 2017 which will involve officers growing facial hair in order to raise awareness to men’s health issues such as depression in men, prostate cancer, and other male cancers. Similar to the event known as “Movember”. Each participating officer must donate $50 per month in order to participate.
The funds raised will be split 50% with St Vincent’s SWIM Across the Sound, a charitable, grass roots organization run by St. Vincent’s Medical Center Foundation since 1987. SWIM provides cancer education, screening, and prevention programs at low or no cost for the underinsured and uninsured. In addition it helps individuals on case by case basis with specific needs such as the funding of wigs, and prostheses, medication, transportation to treatments and support groups. The other 50% will be donated to a Wilton Town employee who has a child with a physical disability. The funds will be used to purchase a new handicap accessible van.
Anyone wishing to assist in this fundraiser is asked to please donate.
Thank you,
The Members of the Wilton PBA
