We'll let you know how Eversource is keeping utility services operational, how you can save a few bucks even if you're using more energy these days, and how the utility is helping keep critical nonprofits operational during this health emergency.

Then we'll check in and see how everyone is doing at the Beardsley Zoo - while learning how zoo staffers are supporting your kids education through a ton of virtual learning programs.

And we'll find out how the Bridgeport Rescue Mission is maintaining its mission to feed and protect families already living on the edge facing domestic violence, poverty, and hunger.
