OPUS for P2P

Founded in 1996, OPUS (which means “great work”) is built on the vision and commitment of a group of Darien women who each “shared a need to be part of and to help the community.” From the very beginning, OPUS embraced the opportunity to do great work and to make a difference.

OPUS is a valuable driver of both awareness and funds for P2P programs, including Campership and Baby Basics. Learn more at opus4p2p.org.
