Investments
The Connecticut Project invests in creating a Connecticut where everyone can thrive.
Our philanthropy provides grant-based support to efforts that have measurable, meaningful results for low-income people now and in the future. We invest in shared goals that people can feel in their daily lives while advancing enduring changes to the underlying conditions that limit opportunity and equity.
We believe that investing resources in big ideas and bold actions will innovate, accelerate, replicate, scale, and create powerful progress. We invest in shared goals and shared outcomes with partners. Through our focus areas of democracy, early childhood education and child care, economic opportunity, housing, and special initiatives, we look for efforts that have the potential to create a Connecticut where opportunity includes everyone.
Please note that we do not accept unsolicited requests for funding. To contact us, please reach out to info@ctproject.org.
