Roger Sherman Chapter, NSDAR
Business Category

We are an enthusiastic group of women volunteering proudly to serve God, Home, and Country. Our members believe in serving our veterans and active military personnel, participating in historic preservation, and supporting education programs throughout the year.

About:
May 8, 1898, Roger Sherman Chapter, NSDAR was the ninth chapter chartered in the State of Connecticut. This chapter serves the New Milford area and is one of over 40 chapters currently in the state. Our chapter's namesake is the only signer of all four fundamental documents of our government.  He was a distinguished member of the Constitutional Convention in 1787 and was elected United States Senator for the State of Connecticut, from 1791-1793. The chapter is very proud to be named the Roger Sherman Chapter National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, in honor of his great service and dedication to our country.  Our members carry on the dedication to serving our community through causes near and dear to our hearts.  Our members work tirelessly with our youth, seniors, and local veterans groups.  In 2021, over 5000 hours were volunteered by sewing masks and quilts, knitting shawls, working at vaccination clinics, food pantries, and volunteering at the local library.
 
Current membership includes women in New Milford, Connecticut, as well as additional members from fourteen states. The members are women a lot like you. We come from diverse backgrounds and have a variety of interests. Our common bond is our lineal descent from patriots of the American Revolution.  Any woman, 18 years or older, regardless of race, religion or ethnic background, who can prove this lineage is eligible to join.  We welcome membership inquiries and are more than happy to answer any questions about the Roger Sherman Chapter and the NSDAR.

Ostomy Foundation
Business Name
Business Category

The Ostomy Foundation mentors, educates, supports and empowers ostomates, family members, caregivers and others within the ostomy community. Through support networks, speaking engagements, social media and community programs, the nonprofit helps individuals navigate their journey while encouraging them to realize their full potential. The foundation also advocates for client rights and strives to eliminate misconceptions and stereotypes related to ostomy that exist for ostomates and in the general public. The organization works with clients of all ages and from all stages of illness. This includes pre-op and immediate post-op surgery care, and those who seek long-term assistance for continuing education and emotional support.

Ostomy surgery allows waste to exit the body through a surgically created diversion from the diseased area to an exterior pouch, which may also be referred to as a bag.

Reasons for this life-saving surgery may be, but are not limited to, cancer, ulcerative colitis (UC), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), Crohn’s Disease, birth defects and many other medical conditions.

We help immigrant families integration into the New Milford Community

NMRR is a volunteer organization that works to help integrate refugee families into the New Milford community. We partner with Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services (IRIS), a non-profit based in New Haven that has been bringing immigrant families to CT for 35 years. IRIS chooses the family and brings them to CT, and we take over from there. We usually work with a family from six months to one year, and our goal is to help them become financially independent by the end of that time.
