Connecticut Community Foundation would like to thank all of the valued donors and sponsors who donated to Give Local this year! You're deep generosity will allow non-profits to continue to help our community to thrive and survive during this COVID-19 crisis and beyond.

...we'd like to send a very special thank to our Presenting Sponsor, Ion Bank Foundation! The Give Local campaign for Greater Waterbury and Litchfield Hills would not have been nearly as successful as it has been without their support! Ion Bank Foundation is committed to building an equitable community by supporting our local nonprofits. Please support sponsor Ion Bank & their foundation!

Donations ensured that local non-profits can keep doing what they have been to support our community during this difficult time as well as helping us recover in the months ahead!
