Ridgefield, CT – March 1, 2017: Fairfield County Bank donated $5,000 to the Housatonic Habitat for Humanity, a program that helps low-income residents and senior citizen homeowners stay in their homes by offering repairs and modifications. “We are proud to support the Housatonic Habitat for Humanity.  They do great work in our communities to ensure home ownership is affordable to families in need,” said Dan Berta, President of Fairfield County Bank.
