B1C is hosted its 11th Annual Spring Benefit Breakfast on May 17th at the Hyatt Regency Greenwich at 7 AM.
This signature event is our most important fundraiser of the year, and brought together a diverse group of over 600 community leaders, volunteers, donors, government officials, and partners from throughout Fairfield County who care deeply about advancing the integration of immigrants and their families in the community.
This was a fantastic opportunity to learn more about the incredible impact of B1C's work through our participants' stories of hope, perseverance, and success.
