Meriden Foundation


The slightly mysterious Meriden Foundation (no web site) gives away a LOT of money each year in grants and scholarships (over $1 million in 2009). Pretty generous!

Though the New Britain and Meriden Public Libraries are listed in some of the available Form 990’s, (see 2009's), I didn't see any others at a glance through the list. 

The Foundation states that ‘requests should benefit the greater Meriden area,’ though I see that some awards are national in scope (e.g., American Cancer Society). i think that's your cue. Perhaps nearby libraries can tap into the generosity? Or, better, band together for a cause that is important to MF and that benefits the whole region? 

Do it!
