Thank you, Hip Hop For Homeless, for helping us continue to make love visible in our community. Last Friday, Joey Batts brought the community together at his benefit concert here in New Britain, where all proceeds and donations were directed to us. Thanks to their incredible efforts, over $1,000 was raised to support our mission, along with a generous amount of food and clothing donations for those we serve! We are so grateful for their dedication to raising awareness and making a difference. We look forward to growing this amazing partnership! 💚 . . . . . #FSCCT #LoveMadeVisible #HipHopForTheHomeless #BenefitConcert #RaiseAwareness #EndingHomelessness

This month is Movember, a time to raise awareness for men’s health issues like prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and mental health. Many men grow mustaches during the month of November to spark conversations about men's health and to show their support, turning facial hair into a powerful symbol of awareness and action. Our staff joined in by posing with mustaches on a stick to help spread the message—because every effort matters when it comes to promoting better health outcomes for our communities. . . . . . #FSCCT #LoveMadeVisible #NewBritainCT #CentralCT #Connecticut #RaiseAwareness #Movember #MensHealthAwarenessMonth
