The Foundation initiates all grants in this sector. Danbury, CT AreaThe Foundation is committed to improving the quality of life in and around Danbury, Connecticut. Grants are focused on organizations that address basic needs of the homeless and that provide services for the elderly in Danbury. The Foundation initiates all grants in this sector. DiscretionaryDiscretionary grants are awarded to organizations identified and selected by members of the Board of Directors, based on personal interests and concerns. Each Director has a limited annual budget for such grants and individually controls decisions made over his/her discretionary funds. Education
The Foundation supports organizations that strive to provide all children with access to an excellent education. Focusing on the geographies of New York City and Connecticut, the Foundation makes grants in three areas: 1) Charter Schools, 2) Advocacy, and 3) People Quality.
