Kuhn Needs Money For Holiday Celebrations

Editor’s Note: It’s the holiday season and for many, that means something more than finding the perfect gift or going to parties. For social service groups or charities, it’s the time when they reach out for that extra bit of help. Over the next few weeks Patch will profile some of the charitable groups working in your towns and tell you what they need. The Information below was self-reported by the group and taken from the Connecticut Council for Philanthropy's Holiday Wishlist and the group's website.
