We also sponsor events, including forums, workshops and meetings, to educate, inform and raise awareness of community issues, and help residents share ideas.
The goal of “06880” is to create a more informed and cohesive community, and offer resources to readers to contribute to charitable causes.
We could not do what we do without your help. Thank you again!
Congratulations bro! So glad you keep us up to date on our hometown. You are doing a great job. So proud of you.
My contribution is coming via Venmo!
Thanks, Sue! Siblings should be exempt — but I am grateful for your love and support (and my nephews and grand-niece!)
YOU ARE 06880! Thank you for all you do for the community and your continued support to my little endeavors. Hope you are staying safe and healthy during these unprecedented times and once we get through this we will celebrate this milestone with chocolate. Just a little Indian trivia: 11 is considered an auspicious number, in fact we add 1 when giving gifts. Adding an extra rupee makes the amount indivisible. So, it is believed that the good wishes, good luck, and blessings remain indivisible. It is regarded as an extra bonus to the blessings.

Thank you Aarti! You rock the universe! I love the “backstory” about 11. Let’s hope this does turn out to be a good year for all of us. Thank you for all you do to make it one!
Dan, I’ve done half your job and gotten paid regularly for it. Don’t know how you manage to create so many blogs, while basically moderating Westport’s best online network! When do you sleep? If I hadn’t already donated $3 a day, I would send you more today. I recommend that level to everyone who reads you every day. About the same price as home delivery of The New York Times!
06880 is an inspiring and wonderful contribution to Westport Bravo Dan what would we do without you?
Thank you, Dan, for keeping us connected and informed!
Hi Dan, you’re the best. Love 06880. It’s the best way to know everything that’s happening in Westport. My donation is on the way.
I’ve got at least a hundred and one reasons to donate Dan. Here’s one: I love when your stories make me laugh. So I’m putting my money where my mirth is.
To get them into the public realm to be appreciated Kate could have a “pay what you wish” sale, take them to Westport Auction or can donate them to the Curio Cottage at the Woman’s Club or The Westport Library.

I was, and 4 of my close family members are, journalists. So I can say, with complete confidence, that you are an inspiration! I don’t know how you do it all, and do it so well. Thanks for your support in so many areas of Westport life!
Thanks, Paddy!
Dan,
I love reading about my hometown and the home of my high school…I graduated from Staples in ’64 and enjoy all the reports about what is now going on there…I look at or read your postings most days and for that reason I have just donated $75 to keep your efforts going.
