Let us help you give back better in Fairfield County
Together, let’s create a county where everyone has an equitable opportunity to thrive. As a partner in strategic philanthropy, we can help you amplify your social impact through a network of local nonprofits and community leaders.
Why engage in social impact?
When you’re recognized as a company that cares – about health, housing, young people, working families and more – your brand benefits. And when you work with the Community Foundation, you can make a real impact right in your own neighborhood.
Ways to Get Involved
Looking to amplify your social impact? Here are some simple ways to engage.
Invest in Local Impact

Sponsor An Event

Start A Fund
