The Fairfield County Community Foundation supports nonprofits serving the communities of Fairfield County and beyond in a variety of ways. We:

  • Make grants from our competitive funds based on a competitive grant process
  • Provide leadership for nonprofits and our communities — as a convener, a broker and a resource — on nonprofit management best practices and on critical community and regional issues
  • Make grants from our Donor Advised and Designated funds.
  • Provide technical assistance to nonprofits and often help create nonprofit partnerships 
  • Provide a menu of philanthropic advisory services to donors and local private foundations.
You will find information about the variety of ways the Foundation supports nonprofits in this section.

Note: Information about Nonprofit Resource Center (NRC) previously established at the Greater Area Bridgeport Foundation will be coming soon.
