Because That's What Neighbors Do.

From a helping hand around the house to guidance through life's challenges, Community Caring in Bridgewater connects our neighbors with the support, resources, and kindness that make our small town special.

It Started With Two Friends.

Community Caring in Bridgewater was founded by John Flaxman and Joe Buchheit, two local residents who saw a need in their community and knew how to fill it.

Our Mission.
