What we do…
Currently and throughout the years, the PBA has continued to provide its members with benefits and events that foster friendship and camaraderie between members, their families and the community. The PBA not only assists members in times of need such as sickness or loss of a family member, but celebrates during times of joy such as the birth of a child or celebrating a retirement. The PBA has also greatly increased its commitment to emphasize the “Benevolent” in its name. The PBA makes numerous donations to local charities, educational programs and community organizations which further strengthens their bond with the community of Fairfield.
