Welcome to this week’s edition of Community Connections!

The mission of this newsletter is to highlight small businesses, bring people together, and encourage community connections. We do this by publishing articles on the always-free NewsBreak App and MSN.

Things might look a bit different!

Before this week’s newsletter, our links would bring you to NewsBreak & MSN. Due to changes on both platforms, including making it so that readers now need to download the respective apps, we have switched to linking you to Substack to read our articles so that you don’t need to download an app. Don’t worry, we will still be bringing you local news that connects you to your community, just on a different publishing platform.

This local business has announced they’ll be shutting their doors later this month.

Want More Community Connections?

If you don't see your area mentioned, don't worry! We cover different towns within Southeastern Massachusetts every week. If you let us know what you want to see and stick around, we may surprise you with some stories about something happening just around the corner from you!

To suggest a town for us to cover or a small business for us to feature, please let us know by clicking here.

How is this FREE?

Thanks to the NewsBreaks Creator Program and the MSN Partner Program, the writers get a small part of the ad revenue that both platforms make. That means the more time you spend reading our free articles, the more you support our free content that helps connect you with the Eastern Massachusetts community!
