CT Community Foundation, Litchfield County

As spotted by intrepid seeker of knowledge and CT State Library web resources librarian Sharon Clapp.

The Connecticut Community Foundation awards sponsorship grants of up to $2,500 to libraries, historical societies, and arts, cultural, and environmental organizations that are 501(c)(3) nonprofits or public entities for one-time programs, symposia, or events open to the public. Your event must be held in their 21-town CCF service area (see below for a list).

Sponsorship grants are limited to one per current calendar year per organization. Info and application.

Deadline: May 11.

FYI, grants are also available from the Community Basic Needs Fund; the Earl and Shirley Herbst Eye Research Fund, the Priscilla S. Whittemore Fund for international group travel programs for youth, and the Women’s Initiative Fund & Lois Livingston McMillen Memorial Fund, to provide funding for programs and services for women and children.
