GIVING TUESDAY is on Tuesday, December 3rd this year and if you are in the holiday spirit and are considering donating, please donate to The Arc of Southington here.
Every time The Arc receives a donation you are helping us support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities along with their families.
Our agency is committed to providing advocacy, education, information, and an array of quality and individualized support to people of all ages in the community. Our vision is for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to feel empowered and live the lives they choose.
The holidays are coming fast and furious and many of you already started shopping at Amazon.com for deep discounts and deals, and we don’t blame you.
We don’t think anyone quite offers Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals like Amazon, so make sure you don’t miss out on those shopping days either.
If Amazon is always your go-to website for the holiday season, then we encourage you to shop through AmazonSmile, because every purchase you make there, instantly helps us. We are so grateful that Amazon continues to give back!
Here’s how it works:
1. Visit: https://smile.amazon.com/
2. Select The Arc of Southington as your charitable organization.
3. Now shop away (just like normal).
4. At checkout, Amazon will donate 0.5% of all of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases to The Arc of Southington.
It’s as simple as that, and we would love your support.
Happy Shopping & Happy Holidays!
Thank you as always, from all of us at The Arc.

We want to thank our sponsors for hosting such a special event and we certainly want to thank our self-advocacy group, A New Way, for creating and running such a wonderful show.
We are thrilled that so many members of our community joined in on the fun, as well as some of The Arc staff. We could not have done this show without these incredibly talented and dedicated team of individuals.
Take a peek at all of this amazing talent in one room…
I AM ESSENTIAL was this theme for this year’s Statewide Nonprofit Advocacy Day that took place at the Legislative Office Building in Hartford, Connecticut on April 10, 2019.
The Arc was proud to participate with 18 individuals that were there to show support and to tell policymakers to keep protecting essential community services.
The Arc is hoping to help stop proposed budget cuts that could significantly impact the required funds needed to keep our organization’s important services available to the community.
WE WANT TO THANK EVERYONE FOR COMING AND FOR THE SUPPORT.
WE KNOW EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU IS ESSENTIAL!
The Arc is so grateful to receive donations from so many wonderful organizations like The Community Foundation of Greater New Britain and The Southington Knights of Columbus.
With our sponsors’ contributions and help, we are able to support and maintain our important programs and services.
Thanks to The Community Foundation of Greater New Britain, A New Way is able to host their annual variety show in 2019. This year’s theme is We Love The 80’s.
The show will be held at the Plantsville Congregational Church on Sunday, June 2nd from 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM. Read more.
Thank You To All Of Our Sponsors!
