In 1993, DAWS was recognized for it's life - saving work and community services when a private
foundation awarded the organization funds toward the
purchase of our current physical shelter at 147 Grassy Plain Street in Bethel, Connecticut.
Those staff have either been
awarded shares as part of their remuneration, were
foundation shareholders at the time we went public, or sold their businesses to us and took part of the
purchase price in shares.
