The Legacy Foundation of Hartford
The Legacy Foundation of Hartford, a 501c3 non-profit, is a venture philanthropy focused on addressing disparities in health and education with a specific emphasis on the most challenged demographic areas of Hartford, Connecticut. We focus our energies on creating opportunities. Talent is Universal, Opportunities are Not! We develop and execute ‘owned’ programs that primarily create opportunities to help advance the education pursuits of youth and encourage a proactive approach to health responsibility. Additionally, we invest in and partner with organizations to expand our reach in fulfilling our mission.
