  The CDR thanks our friends at Comcast for working on some major projects around the Dining Room recently. These included painting the dining room, back porch and bathroom and performing a deep cleaning of our kitchen and pantry. They also purchased a new freezer for us and filled it full of quality fresh meats! We are very grateful for this community support from our Comcast neighbors!  
 
 
 

Connex Credit Union recently opened a new branch in Branford. During the ribbon cutting, Connex made a $500 donation to the CDR as a way of thanking the community for welcoming them. [click here for more]
