7th Annual Event to benefit the Young Philanthropists Fund at the New Canaan Community Foundation will be on Thursday, November 10th at Woodway Country Club 11:30am - 2:00pm.

The proceeds from this lunch support the Young Philanthropists Fund (YPF) - which is a program for high school age New Canaan residents to actively learn about philanthropy.  The YPF group will review grant applications from local non-profits in February and choose which applications to approve with the allocated funds.

The guest speaker this year is Jim Ziolkowski, the Founder, President and CEO of BuildOn, and we will be honoring Tom Turrentine, who has been a dedicated volunteer to so many New Canaan organizations.

Please call NCCF at 203-966-0231 for more information.
