Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation: for Northwest CT

Berkshire Taconic houses many types of funds, all supported by individuals, families, communities and organizations with philanthropic ideals. The Northwest Corner fund was established to improve the quality of life for the residents of northwest Litchfield County.

Each year, the Northwest Corner Fund awards grants to nonprofit groups to underwrite their participation in the Nonprofit Learning Program, in which a national expert works with board and staff members of local nonprofits to build more effective organizations.

2009-2010 saw $1.1M granted to organizations from the Northwest Corner fund.
