Connecticut Basement Systems Participates in the Back to School Drive

As members of the Corporate Volunteer Council, Connecticut Basement Systems participated in the annual Back to School Drive. We sponsored two children from the Ansonia elementary schools that are below the poverty line and provided them with all the necessary supplies to start the new school year right. 

The Corporate Volunteer Council organizes this event by providing each company who participates a check list of supplies needed for each child. Then as a company, we need to organize and collect these supplies for them. With the help from our friends at Contractor Nation and the Treehouse, we were able to collect everything on the list and more. We were astonished with all the donations that came pouring in for the support of these two girls. 

All the supplies were organized into bins for these two girls. All extra supplies were placed in a separate bin for the Nurse’s Closet, where they will be distributed throughout the school year. 

On August 22, 2018, members of Connecticut Basement Systems, Contractor Nation and the Treehouse gathered at Mead Elementary School to witness our sponsor kids open up their bins filled with brand new school supplies. 

The entire gymnasium was overwhelmed with joy watching all of these kids open up their bins. It was an up lifting experience that collectively as a team we all could experience. The team effort put forth by Connecticut Basement Systems, Contractor Nation and the Treehouse resulted in getting these two girl the ability to start the new school year right.
