Branford, CT – September 9, 2024 – V.F. McNeil Insurance, a long-standing member of the Branford community and active supporter of local causes, is excited to announce the launch of its Miles 4 Wishes fundraiser in support of Make-A-Wish® Connecticut.

The fundraiser, which runs from September 9 to October 21, encourages participants to engage in fitness activities such as walking, running, biking, and hiking, with every mile translating into donation support for Make-A-Wish® Connecticut.
