The Farmington Bank Community Foundation strives to continue the 167-year legacy of the former Farmington Bank by supporting non-profit organizations and community programs that enhance opportunities for a better life. It focuses on improving economic opportunities, health, and addressing basic needs for the residents of sixteen communities in Central Connecticut.
The grant program aims to provide financial support to projects or programs that offer short-term emergency assistance to households in need, including support for shelters, food pantries, and household goods. It also seeks to decrease homelessness through programs that promote diversion and intervention, providing a holistic approach to tackling immediate health and human services needs within the community.
