16h agoA huge event that supports almost two dozen state nonprofits is celebrating its 38th year this weekend.
The Bigelow Tea Community Challenge is this Sunday from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Wakeman Boys and Girls Club in Southport.
It has raised over $2.7 million for Connecticut Charities Since 1987.
These organizations provide critical services including education, housing, food assistance, crisis counseling, after-school programs, and recreational activities for the region's most vulnerable populations.
This family-friendly event features a 5K run, 3K walk, kids' fun run, plus virtual options for all ages.
More than 800 people are expected to take part.
Both in-person and virtual participation options are available.
It's happening rain or shine.
Cindi Bigelow, president and CEO of Bigelow Tea headquartered in Fairfield, says this event has grown from 50 people back in the day when it raised $3,000.
