What We Do!
We (typically) host two fundraisers a year, the first being our Halloween Dance Fundraiser, and the second being our Palm Sunday Breakfast Fundraiser. The funds generated from these fundraisers go directly into our scholarships and financial contributions to other organizations. We do eye screenings for the youth in Winsted Public Schools and we host blood drives. We also collect used eyeglasses at several Winsted locations.
