The Killingworth Foundation is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to increasing the amount and the impact of local philanthropy in order to enhance the quality of life for the citizens and the community of Killingworth, Connecticut.

Since 2007, The Killingworth Foundation has been building a charitable endowment to serve the citizens and the community of Killingworth. Our funds come from individual and group donations, and bequests from people who appreciate the continuity and flexibility that a permanent philanthropic foundation provides.

The Killingworth Foundation will provide seed money for new services and will fill needs not being met by other organizations or sources. In general, we will grant funds for special purposes, including buildings, equipment, land, and programs, but we will not commit the Foundation to recurring expenses.

Individuals or organizations making gifts or bequests to The Killingworth Foundation can be assured they have made a contribution that will be of enduring benefit to the town.

Killingworth Foundation Offers Tuition Assistance for Summer Camps
The Killingworth Foundation, with a lead gift from the Auer Family Fund, has established a tuition assistance program for Killingworth families that would otherwise be unable to enroll their children in summer programs run by the Haddam-Killingworth Recreation Department or the Killingworth Land Conservation Trust.

“We know that many families are facing difficult economic decisions, and we hope this program will allow them to consider options that they would otherwise have had to forgo,” said Nancy Dodson, president of the Killingworth Foundation.

The HK Recreation Department runs an array of summer camps for children from preschoolers to teens.
