Planning for the semi-annual Children’s Fair began in the early fall of last year. When the tragic events of Sandy Hook occurred co-owner of Newtown based Connectologie, Lisa Agresta, who also is a resident of Newtown and a mom of three young children, reflected on whether to continue with the event or if the venue should be relocated. After careful consideration, Lisa Agresta
said, “My business partner and I decided to continue with the event here in Newtown because this is my home and events like this are important to the community.” It was also decided to support the community by donating all proceeds from ticket and event giveaways to the Newtown Memorial Fund.
The Newtown Memorial Fund’s mission is to create a sustainable fund to provide for the immediate and ongoing needs of those affected by the Sandy Hook Elementary School tragedy, to construct a physical memorial honoring the lives lost on December 14, 2012, and to establish
academic scholarships in the victims’ names for future generations of Newtown students. “We are thrilled to be associated with and be the beneficiary of such a diverse and fun event like this. The event in and of itself can help our community to heal, while the funds raised will be added to what we have already collected and begun disbursing quietly through our channels identifying needs of those affected," said Brian Mauriello, Chairman and Founder of the Newtown Memorial Fund.
