Families First in Southern Vermont is a nonprofit organization that supports close to one hundred adults and youth with developmental disabilities to live their best lives. We recently bought and moved into the historic Bordertown Farm in Brattleboro. The campus now holds our programming, service coordination, nurses, administrative offices, and Banyan House, our residential program for DCF-engaged youth.

Unfortunately, the building flooded shortly after we moved in, damaging our programming spaces and offices and displacing us for months. We're currently making repairs. While making these repairs, we discovered the need to upgrade our heating and cooling system. To help with these costs and support our ongoing programming needs, we're holding a Giving Tuesday Auction Fundraiser that will end on Dec. 3rd, 2024.

Please bid on items or donate, and share!

Thank you for your support!
