We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the United Way and UConn at Waterbury Hospital for their generous donation of incontinence supplies for our senior community.
These thoughtful donations make a meaningful difference in the lives of older adults by helping provide comfort, support, and dignity to those we serve. We are so appreciative of your generosity and continued dedication to our community. 💙
The United Way of Greater Waterbury recently helped facilitate a donation of adult incontinence products at the request of the the Waterbury Senior Center. UConn Health Waterbury Hospital quickly answered the call to support local seniors, while United Way helped coordinate pathways toward longer-term solutions.

Far too many seniors in our community are struggling to make ends meet while facing rising costs for housing, utilities, food, transportation, and medications. Incontinence products are not a luxury. They are an essential health and wellness need that is often not covered by insurance.
Strong community partnerships and responsive leadership continue to make a meaningful difference for our seniors and families.
