💙✨ Bridgeport creativity, purpose & community!

We love seeing organizations like CAPT — Color A Positive Thought continue to create a safe space for our youth while giving back to the community in so many ways. From book bag giveaways and community outreach events to programs and activities centered around our young people, they’ve been doing some great work right here in Bridgeport. 🙌🏽

And now they’re taking it a step further with their own clothing line! 👕🔥

The designs are clean, creative, and carry the message behind the organization with them. It’s always great to see local organizations creating, building, and finding new ways to connect with and inspire our community.

Go check out what they’re doing and show them some love! 💙
