Starting in 2018, we’ve partnered with Moffly Media to introduce Fairfield County’s Community Foundation Community Impact Awards
Thank you for nominating extraordinary nonprofits working to close the opportunity gap in Fairfield County.
We’re excited to share that All Our Kin and the Center for Children’s Advocacy have been selected as the recipients of FCCF’s inaugural award.
Winners will each receive a $2,500 grant and a year of free trainings and workshops (a $2,000 value) from FCCF’s Center for Nonprofit Excellence.* They’ll also be honored on-stage at the November Light a Fire Awards ceremony, featured in publicity and social media efforts, and highlighted in special Moffly Media magazine coverage. Check here for Light a Fire ceremony tickets.
*Each winning organization will receive access for two staff members at FCCF’s CNE trainings throughout 2019, subject to availability and excluding Executive Leadership Program.
For 10 years, Moffly Media’s Light at Fire Awards have celebrated the individuals and organizations changing lives in Fairfield County. A portion of ticket proceeds from the Light a Fire Awards event is generously donated by Moffly Media to Fairfield County’s Community Foundation (FCCF). We are pleased to announce that beginning in 2018, we have expanded our partnership with Moffly Media to introduce this new awards category.
