Dear Saxe Families, 

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended and supported our first-ever Saxe Serves event! We had an incredible turnout yesterday. It was a fantastic morning of connection, conversation, and community building.

We want to extend a very special thank you to the incredible local organizations who generously shared their time, knowledge, and resources. Your dedication to supporting New Canaan families and empowering students is truly inspiring—and we are so grateful for your partnership. 

Whether you joined us in person or couldn’t make it this time, we want to make sure everyone has access to the amazing resources and contacts shared during the event. These local organizations are here to support your family—and to help your Saxe student find meaningful ways to give back.
