RE:

Bullfinch Fund, Inc. File Nos. 811-08191/333-26321

Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of the Bullfinch Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), enclosed for filing, pursuant to Rule 17g-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), are the following documents: a copy of the fidelity bond in the amount of $250,000 for the period October 31, 2024 through October 31, 2025 (the "Fidelity Bond"); and

Below my signature is a copy of the Secretary's Certificate certifying the resolutions adopted at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Fund held on October 30, 2024, at which a majority of the Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Fund, as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, approved the amount, type, form and coverage of the Fidelity Bond and the portion of the premium to be paid by each of the Series of the Fund;

The premium for the Fidelity Bond has been paid for the period of October 31, 2024 through October 31, 2025. If the Series of Funds had not been named as a co-insured under the Fidelity Bond, the Funds would have maintained a single insured fidelity bond in the amount of $250,000 for the Unrestricted Series and $250,000 for the Greater Western New York Series, as required under paragraph (d) of Rule 17g-1.

Please contact me at (585) 624-3150 if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
/s/ Christopher Carosa
