SUPPORT
ABC of Wilton is sustained entirely by the generosity of the Wilton community, and we are deeply grateful for the support that makes our mission possible. Our Scholars — remarkable young women of color — benefit directly from your kindness, which provides them with a safe and nurturing home, a strong educational foundation, and the resources they need to thrive.
ABC of Wilton is self‑supported and guided by a dedicated volunteer Board of Directors and staff. To all the Wilton residents and businesses who have opened their hearts and given so generously, thank you. Your commitment creates opportunity, stability, and hope for our Scholars, and we are profoundly appreciative.
