For the month of February, we partnered with Hands on Hartford to support their Nutrition Backpack program.
This program serves as an extension to provide weekend meals to 230 children.
We filled backpacks with kid-friendly foods that will be distributed weekly to elementary school students in the greater Hartford region.
Clarus participated in this program in 2016 and filled 31 backpacks, so we had a record to beat!
Equipped with a list of approved healthy foods, the team hit the grocery stores and filled up 40 backpacks (totaling 705 pounds of food)!
We talk a lot about loyalty at Clarus as it takes place between brands and consumers, but we can’t forget what that means in the larger picture.
Loyalty is also about allegiance to our community, and that’s why Clarus Cares events will carry on. If you would like to nominate a local charity or cause for consideration for a future event, contact us anytime.
Interested in working for a company that cares about the local Connecticut community just as much as you do? Check out our job openings here.
