Under its strategic commitment, the Hartford Foundation is poised to move to a greater level of impact and growth that will enhance our ability to support nonprofits and other partners to identify and serve community needs.  We also seek to enhance our role as a trusted steward, collaborator and innovator.

Summary of Role:
