The Fairfield County Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to enhancing the quality of life and economic viability of the Fairfield County community. It was established by a small committee of caring citizens in 1989, when Probate Judge S. Farrell Jackson challenged local citizens to form a foundation to keep significant trust funds invested locally.  From the beginning, local citizens have served on the Board of Trustees to provide a Community Foundation. This enables individuals, families and organizations a resource “through” which to give money to benefit our community.

Our mission is to build a legacy through philanthropy and stewardship to strengthen our community.
