NVHD Community Give Back Program

 

Naugatuck Valley Health District is committed to protecting the environmental and physical well-bring for its communities through the promotion of health access, health education, regulation, community engagement, and partnerships. In honor of National Public Health Week (April 3- 9), NVHD wanted to encourage residents to make an impact when it comes to public health and resilience within our community, and they can now do this by supporting our new “Community Give Back Program”.

Throughout the year, we will designate a “charity or non-profit of the month” and all donations collected will be donated to that organization. We reached out to our local libraries, senior centers, and community centers, to partner with us and host donation bins in addition to a collection bin at our office, located at 98 Bank Street, Seymour, CT! Be sure to check out our new flyer each month! We are excited for the launch of this program and hope YOU will get involved!
