Thanksgiving Resources in Our Community

Celebrating Thanksgiving by Connecting You with Local Resources

As Thanksgiving approaches, we’re reminded of the importance of connection, care, and community. At Griswold Home Care in Fairfield County and New Haven County, we understand how challenging this season can be, especially for seniors and families in need.

To help make the holiday brighter, here are a few local resources and organizations offering free food resources in our Stratford community. Whether you or a loved one could benefit from groceries or simply want to spread the word, we’re here to help.
