Every Gift Counts. When you make a gift to the Foundation, you join your neighbors in support of the broad range of resources available to area residents.
The Foundation makes high-impact grants of over $1 million annually to nonprofits that provide important services. See our recent grantees.
Our area of Fairfield County is home to hundreds of nonprofit organizations supporting our elderly, youth, those in need, the arts and environment. The best of these organizations play a critical role in the quality of life in our community.
New Canaan Community Foundation is at the heart of many of these organizations as a source of significant, reliable funding.
Your individual gift is combined with others to support our professional and volunteer-driven grantmaking. Together, we have a broad impact on the whole community.
