4-CT CORP is a Connecticut-focused private funder that concentrates on direct social services and health access for low-income, immigrant and Hispanic communities across the state. They regularly support regional community action agencies, refugee/immigrant service providers, and free/community health clinics, often providing program or general support to local nonprofits. Their giving shows a pragmatic, local-service orientation rather than arts or large national initiatives.
Modest-sized, mostly unrestricted or program grants concentrated in Connecticut; a mix of repeat funding to core regional providers and several mid-sized one-time gifts. Funding is distributed across a relatively small number of organizations rather than many scattered small awards.
4-ct Corp’s recent giving is defined by general support for Connecticut nonprofits serving immigrants, Hispanic communities, and people seeking basic health care. The largest grant in the latest record was $35,520 to New Opportunities Inc in Waterbury for general support, which fits a broader pattern of flexible funding to local service providers rather than project-specific awards. Another major grant went to Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services in New Haven for $20,000, showing continued support for organizations working with refugee and immigrant populations. The foundation’s recipients include community action agencies, faith-based social service providers, and community health organizations. Catholic Charities Archdiocese of Hartford received grants of $15,100 in 2023 and $13,500 in 2024, both for general support. Other awards went to agencies such as Community Action Agency of Western Connecticut, Community Health Care Center Inc, and Building One Community Corp. Across the record, the emphasis is on core operating support for groups delivering direct services in Connecticut communities.
A central part of 4-ct Corp’s grantmaking is immigrant and refugee support. It gave $20,000 to Integrated Refugee and Immigrant Services in New Haven for general support, and also funded Connecticut Institute for Refugees and Immigrants Inc in Bridgeport in both 2023 and 2024. The foundation also supports Hispanic-serving organizations. Communidad Hispana De Wallingford received $11,600 in 2023 and $10,000 in 2024, while Hispanic Alliance of Southeastern Ct Inc in New London received $10,000 in 2024 and $6,000 in 2023. Health access is another recurring area. Community Health Care Center Inc in Middletown received $12,000 in 2023, and Americares Free Clinics in Stamford received $8,000 in 2024 and $7,500 in 2023. Regional anti-poverty work appears as well through grants to community action agencies such as Thames Valley Council for Community Action Inc and Community Action Agency of Western Connecticut.
4-ct Corp’s typical grants cluster around a modest operating-support range: the 25th percentile is $7,500, the median is $10,000, and the 75th percentile is $12,250. The recent record shows repeated awards to the same organizations across multiple years, including Catholic Charities Archdiocese of Hartford, Communidad Hispana De Wallingford, Hispanic Alliance of Southeastern Ct Inc, Americares Free Clinics, and Connecticut Institute for Refugees and Immigrants Inc. The foundation appears to use flexible support rather than restricted project funding, with grants labeled general support throughout the recent list. It does not fund individuals and does not make program-related investments. Giving is local in scope, and the latest 990 year on file is 2024.
