The New Canaan Community Foundation was founded in 1977 by a group of civic-minded New Canaan residents who saw an opportunity and came together to make their community better. Again and again, New Canaanites make that choice. We’re honored that they choose to partner with the Foundation. 

For almost 50 years, NCCF has been leading on important issues, harnessing the power of volunteerism, and stewarding local giving to foster a healthier and more vibrant community.  We’ve learned that extraordinary things can happen when you invite people to the table, and co-create the community they want to see.

In 2025, NCCF awarded $1.12m to 94 non-profits in the New Canaan and lower Fairfield County impacting the areas of Youth and Education; Seniors and Special Needs; Arts, Culture and Community Resources; Human Services; and Health and Behavioral Health.  For a complete list of the 94 non-profits that received grants, click 2025 Grantees.
