A Good Fit

People considering charitable giving often face similar challenges. In talking to potential donors every day, there are a few questions that we consistently ask to assess if the Hartford Foundation will be a good fit.

These questions include:

• Do you want to make a difference in the Greater Hartford community? Other regions as well?
• Are you searching for ways to teach your children to give back to their community?
• Do you want help deciding how to balance support for your favorite causes and involving your children?
• Do you wonder if your current charitable giving really makes a difference?
• Are you flooded by charitable solicitations?
• Have you thought about prioritizing your charitable interests?
• Are you thinking about giving now or from your estate, or both?
• Do you (or your children) want to stay actively involved in making grants from your fund, or do you want to make an outright gift for your stated purposes?
• Is your family foundation becoming burdensome to run?
• Is your charitable giving more of a chore than a joy?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, the Hartford Foundation may be a good fit for you. To learn more, please request our Donor Kit or contact us by phone at 860-548-1888 or email us at giving@hfpg.org.
