ASNH To Participate in the Great Give on May 4-5, 2021

ASNH is participating in the Great Give again this year.

The Great GiveĀ® is an annual 36-hour online fundraising event that unites donors with charitable organizations serving Greater New Haven. It will begin at 8:00 am on May 4 and conclude at 8:00 pm on May 5. Created by The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven, they provide more than $205,000 in matching funds and prizes that are up-for-grabs for participating nonprofits. Over $13.5 Million has been distributed to charitable organizations serving Greater New Haven because of The Great GiveĀ®.

We thank all that donated last year and would like you to consider donating this year. Here is the link for donations:

We will continue to use this format for monthly meetings until it is safe to meet in person again. A week or two before each meeting, members will receive an email announcement with a link that will allow them to connect to the online meeting.

Just click the link or copy and paste in your browser and that will connect you to the meeting. You can do this on any device that has an internet connection and a browser.  You can do this on a smart phone. You can display yourself if you like with your selfie camera on your device. If you don’t that’s okay, don’t feel you have to.

You can also dial in to the meeting. The number and password will be given in the announcement.
