CT private high school junior Anne Goshdigian, coordinator of Faces of Homelessness at Hands On Hartford, a nonprofit that works with homeless Hartford residents and presented to Watkinson private school students on Equity and Social Justice Day, said, “Hands-On Hartford received an amazing donation of 1,000 face masks from Cindy Z. [class of 2021] last week. What a blessing! They will be distributed to those in need. We are so grateful for her help in keeping our Community Meals and MANNA Pantry guests safe and healthy. A gift to the whole community!”
Watkinson history teacher Andy Aavatsmark also commented, “This was a terrific initiative by Cindy, who saw a need in the community and took it upon herself to do something about it.”
