Welcome to the 11th edition of the Giving Guide: Business Gives Back.
The far-reaching impact of the Covid-19 pandemic is presenting unprecedented challenges to the nonprofits in our state. The community needs and services offered have increased, however many have found their events and fundraising sources postponed or canceled. Supporting our nonprofits has never been more urgent.
This year’s Giving Guide can be a useful resource to inform and connect you with the many nonprofit and charitable organizations that work so tirelessly throughout the year to provide for, and serve, our community with compassion and pragmatism. The individual contributors and organizations highlighted in this guide push beyond the daily 9-5 workday, serving as board members, patrons and fundraisers, all of them engaged as agents of change.
The Guide features informational profiles of a cross-section of nonprofits and provides insight into how these organizations are navigating the crisis and what their needs are today.
You can learn more about their mission, giving and volunteer opportunities and the business and community leaders guiding them.
All of us at the Hartford Business Journal are proud to be part of such a caring and generous business community that gives back every day. We thank our founding partners — The Hartford Foundation for Public Giving and United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut — sponsors, nonprofit partners and the hundreds of organizations listed in the directory for your years of support.
When it comes to how you might deploy your time, talent and resources, we hope you use the Giving Guide to find great organizations whose missions and visions resonate highly with your own.
We’re all in this together. Stronger Together.
