CTCPA Day of Giving

Since the Day of Giving began in 2021, CTCPA members have given $19,425 and thousands of pounds of toys and food.


Our neighbors need us now more than ever.

The CTCPA Day of Giving returns for its fifth year on Tuesday, December 2 from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. at ADNET Technologies (400 Capital Boulevard, Rocky Hill).

Join us, the CTCPA New and Young Professionals, and the Young Lawyers Section of the Connecticut Bar Association  as we raise money for Connecticut Foodshare and toys for the kids at Connecticut Children's Medical Center.

Important Changes for 2025: 
Monetary Donations Only for Foodshare and New Drop-Off Location

As the CTCPA office is moving, our friends at ADNET Technologies have agreed to host our Day of Giving.

ADNET Technologies, 400 Capital Boulevard, Rocky Hill  🞗  Drive around to the back of the building to donate.
 
Due to lack of storage and at the request of Connecticut Foodshare, we will NOT be accepting food donations this year. We will be accepting monetary donations only to maximize our impact by using Foodshare's purchasing power to stretch our dollars as far as possible.

New, unwrapped toy donations will be accepted and delivered to Connecticut Children's Medical Center.  

Thanks to Connecticut Foodshare's purchasing power, raising $25 can provide up to 50 meals. Monetary donations support Connecticut Foodshare's partnerships with a network of 650 food pantries, meal programs, and mobile distributions. 

Because of that fact, we are only accepting monetary donations online OR in person at ADNET Technologies, 400 Capital Boulevard in Rocky Hill on Tuesday, December 2 from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m.

We'll have a dry-erase “big check” at the event for a great team photo opp!
