Hats off to the team at Waterbury DCF for their generous donation of purses and hygiene products for the women staying in our shelter at The Umbrella Center for Domestic Violence Services.

These thoughtful items provide more than everyday essentials, they help restore comfort, dignity, and a sense of care during a difficult time.
