The Carver community is deeply grateful to The Community Fund of Darien for awarding us a generous $45,000 grant for general operating support in 2025. This renewed and vital funding allows Carver to continue doing what we do best—providing transformative academic, social-emotional, and enrichment programming to more than 3,000 students across all K-12 Norwalk Public Schools.
The Community Fund of Darien has long been a champion of strong communities. Since 1951, thanks to the generosity of its many donors, the Fund has granted over $29 million to local nonprofits and community initiatives, supporting access to food, housing, healthcare, job and skills training, youth development, and senior services in Darien, Norwalk, and Stamford.
By investing in Carver’s mission, The Community Fund is investing in the success of Norwalk’s youth and the long-term health of our shared community. This trust and support mean the world to us—and to the students and families who count on Carver as a steady presence in their lives.
Together, we are building a stronger, more equitable future. Thank you, Community Fund of Darien, for standing with Carver and so many other frontline organizations making a difference every day.
