Killingworth Friendly Fund

Friends—

We’d like to ask you to make a special donation to the Killingworth Friendly Fund this year. 

Here’s why: each year, forty to fifty low-income households in Killingworth rely on fuel assistance from the state to get through the winter. This year, because of cutbacks in federal funding, households are receiving only one-third to one-half of what they have received in the past. And there’s a long, cold winter ahead. Let’s make sure that our neighbors can stay warm this season.

The decades-old Friendly Fund consists of (tax-deductible) donations and is managed by the town. It provides small amounts of emergency assistance for residents in need. Normally, a few thousand dollars is enough to respond to the needs that arise in a year, but, as we all know, the times are not “normal.” 

Please be as generous as you always are! Donations can be dropped off at Town Hall or mailed to Killingworth Friendly Fund, Killingworth Town Hall, 323 Route 81.

Thank you for all you do.

Cathy Iino
Chair, Killingworth Democratic Town Committee
