Glastonbury Greater Together Community Fund: Annual Grants

Glastonbury Greater Together Community Fund

In celebration of the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving's Centennial in 2025 and the 5th anniversary of the Greater Together Community Fund, we are pleased to announce an expanded grantmaking capacity this year. We invite applications for funding that will directly benefit Glastonbury, CT.

We seek proposals for projects aimed at improving or enhancing the quality of life in Glastonbury or addressing critical community needs. This funding supports initiatives that may include:

• Improving access to existing programs (especially for underserved populations)
• Innovative new initiatives or enhancements to current programs
• Efforts to meet basic human needs (e.g., food, shelter), healthcare, human services, mental health services, senior services, education, and recreation/land conservation

All proposed projects must benefit the residents of Glastonbury, CT.

Annual Grants

Annual grants are up to $5,000. Grant award amounts will vary based on the scope and focus of the proposal.
