The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven is a philanthropic
institution that was established in 1928 through a bequest. For more than
80 years, thousands of donors have built the community endowment by
establishing permanent funds or making gifts to existing funds that
distribute grants. These donors, past and present, make their gifts to ensure
that programs and causes that matter most to them will be supported today
and forever.

The Connecticut Health Foundation (CT Health) is the state's largest
independent health philanthropy dedicated to improving lives by changing
health systems. Since it was established in July 1999, the foundation has
supported innovative grant-making, public health policy research, technical
assistance and convening to achieve its mission - to improve the health of the
people of Connecticut. It has funded over $41 million in grants. The
foundation believes changing systems will produce the greatest impact
over time.

Since 1925, the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving has quietly helped
make good things happen in the Capitol Region of Connecticut. We've been
a reliable resource for the local charitable community, including donors,
community leaders, and nonprofit organizations of all types and sizes.

We are a national foundation with local roots. We choose, as the Knight
brothers chose, to seek opportunities that can transform both communities
and journalism, and help them reach their highest potential. We advance
journalism in the digital age and invest in the vitality of communities where
the Knight brothers owned newspapers. We focus on projects that promote
informed, engaged communities and lead to transformational change. We
believe that information is a core community need. We want to ensure that
all citizens get the information they need to thrive in a democracy and act
in their own best interest.

The Melville Trust concentrates its efforts on finding and fighting the
causes of homelessness. We support service and housing programs in
Connecticut that can serve as models throughout the country. The Trust
also funds educational, research and advocacy initiatives in Connecticut
and on a national level. We collaborate actively with a growing network of
individuals and groups, public and private, to build communities where
every adult and child has a place to call home.

We are a vehicle for change and a bridge to the future, a network of
philanthropists and civic leaders bringing resources together to support
and build on the strengths of community and make the Bay Area the best
place it can be.

For more than 60 years, we have been an incubator for community
investment, original ideas, and passionate leadership. Learn about our
origins and our vision for the future.

The Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation will seek and fund innovative projects
which advance solutions to basic and enduring problems. With an overall

The mission of the William Caspar Graustein Memorial Fund is to improve
the effectiveness of education in fostering both personal development and
leadership. Connecticut's children are the focus of the Graustein Memorial Fund's
grantmaking. Our intent is inclusive: to work with rural, urban and
suburban communities, and both public and private schools. We want to
provide means for our grantees to learn from one another's experience, and
we seek to include those people who will be affected by programs in their
design and evaluation. A belief that education benefits both individuals and
society as a whole guides our work.
