The Community Foundation of Greater New Britain

The Community Foundation of Greater New Britain Our Vision - Making our community vibrant and a better place to work and live. We are proud to consistently comply with the National Standards for U.S.

Our Mission - To inspire philanthropy, responsibly manage permanent charitable assets, and partner to address key community issues through strategic leadership. The Community Foundation of Greater New Britain, established in 1941, is a 501(c)(3) primarily serving the communities of Berlin, New Britain, Plainville and Southington Connecticut; however, grants from our Donor Advised Funds and some sc

holarships extend well beyond our primary region. Community Foundations and have attained Platinum Level Participation Status from Guidestar, the Internet’s premier source of nonprofit financial and program accountability information. On average we provide more than $1.5 million in grants, sponsorships, scholarships and programs annually. An individual, family or organization can establish a Donor-Advised or Designated Fund with our Foundation for just $5,000 and provide grants to nonprofit groups anywhere in the United States based on our Spending Policy. Scholarships begin at $25,000. We currently manage close to $50 million within more than 210 funds. Beyond the good our grants provide we also lead several initiatives in our communities including First Year's First Early Childhood Education programs, Capacity Building for Nonprofits, a Catalyst Giving Circle, Young Philanthropy programs for younger professionals and a Greater New Britain Natural Disaster Fund.
