SCOW Receives Contribution from Hartford Archdiocese

October 31, 2018

The Spanish Community of Wallingford has received a contribution of $1,250 from the Hartford Archbishop's Annual Appeal through its Vicariate Outreach Program.

The funding will be used to continue the 45-year-old organization's mission of responding to the needs of the Latino community by assisting them to succeed in the U.S. SCOW provides social service guidance, educational opportunities, and cultural sharing.

"The contribution is important because our community has many needs and our programs continue to expand," said Adriana Rodriguez, interim director of SCOW." The contribution will be added to our direct services fund that assists clients with rent assistance, purchase of medications, and any other emergencies. We are deeply thankful to the Hartford Archdiocese for their generosity."
