Thanks for Helping Us Meet the $15,000 Challenge!
The WATCH Staff and Board sends a heartfelt THANKS to all of you who helped WATCH meet the $15,000 fundraising challenge posed to us by a group of our donors in May.
We did meet the goal on our July 15th deadline - in fact, in the end, we surpassed it by $900!
This fundraising campaign was successful due to nearly 150 WATCH supporters! Many of you contributed right away, getting us off to a good start. Others of you sent in a gift over the course of this process, helping us to build steam. Still others came through at the end, helping us meet the goal by donating online and via pledges left on our voicemail during the last day or two. It was an exciting couple of days!
Of course, in the end, this is all about our collective commitment to WATCH's work to create a stronger community. If you did not get a chance to give over the last couple months, a donation made today will still go a long way to supporting our work. You can donate online or by sending your check to WATCH at 517 Moody Street, Waltham, MA 02453.
July is Healthy Homes Month at WATCH!
This month, WATCH is kicking off its newest program called Healthy Homes. Through this program, we will provide links between low-income community members and free weatherization services that not only save residents money on fuel costs but also lower the environmental impact each home has. We will also conduct barn-raisings, starting in September, where community members will come together to do simple weatherization to each other's homes.
Interested in getting involved or receiving free weatherization work? Contact Anne at 781.891.6689 x 206 or at
