To support organizations that advance literacy, build communities, and dismantle systems that perpetuate poverty and racism.
Newalliance Foundation Inc. is marked by a long-term commitment to literacy and student support, including repeated funding for New Haven Reads and St. Martin De Porres Academy. The foundation’s recent grants show a clear preference for organizations serving children and youth in Greater New Haven, with literacy work, after-school enrichment, and pathway support appearing alongside health and housing services. In literacy, it funds both direct learning help and the infrastructure around it: New Haven Reads received $25,000 in 2024 to support free literacy programs and the community book bank, and $25,000 in 2025 for the same work. St. Martin De Porres Academy received $25,000 in 2023 and $20,000 in 2025 for its graduate support program, which follows students from middle school through high school and college. The foundation also backs organizations that connect low-income residents to basic needs and community resources, including Columbus House, Project Access of New Haven, and New Haven Free Public Library. Its stated purpose is to support organizations that advance literacy, build communities, and dismantle systems that perpetuate poverty and racism.
Literacy is the clearest thread in Newalliance Foundation Inc.’s grantmaking. New Haven Reads received $25,000 in 2024 and $25,000 in 2025 for free literacy programs and a community book bank serving aspiring readers in Greater New Haven. Booker T Washington Academy received $25,000 in 2023 for accelerated early literacy after pandemic-related learning loss, then $25,000 in 2024 and $20,000 in 2025 for differentiated literacy needs in K-4 learners and teachers. The foundation also supports summer reading work: New Haven Free Public Library received $22,000 in 2023 for “READy for the Grade,” and Hamden Public Library received $20,000 in 2024 for the same initiative. Beyond literacy, it funds youth development through Leadership Education and Athletics in Partnership, which received $20,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025 for academic enrichment and leadership training. It also supports Music Haven, with grants in 2024 and 2025 for tuition-free music education and mentorship.
Typical grant size is modest: p25 is $3,000, the median is $5,000, and p75 is $10,000. The recent-grants list also includes awards above that range, with several $20,000 and $25,000 grants and one $27,500 grant. The foundation gives through a regular grantmaking structure rather than a DAF and also funds individuals. Recurrence is a clear pattern: several grantees appear in multiple years, including New Haven Reads, Booker T Washington Academy, Project Access of New Haven, Columbus House, Leadership Education and Athletics in Partnership, Music Haven, and St. Martin De Porres. Active programs include annual grants, spring and fall competitive cycles, general operating support, capital campaign grants, an emerging grant program, and technology grants.
