Levo’s 100 Bokit Initiative comes to a close this Fall with an event in Waterbury in partnership with Children's Community School. The campaign was sponsored by generous donors and a matching grant from Sustainable CT. Levo would like to particularly thank the active and enthusiastic support of Hartford’s St. Patrick-St. Anthony community. Because of this support, the Bokit program reached 500 families in Connecticut this summer, including the cities of Hartford, East Hartford, Waterbury, Bridgeport, and New Haven. The program was a success thanks to our partner organizations. The Connecticut program is mirrored by a similar campaign in Haiti with the generosity of individual donors, we will expand the initiative’s reach in 2022, including to reduce hunger in southern Haiti in the wake of the recent natural disasters and political unrest.

We thank all who made the program such a success!
