E. E. Ford Foundation Grant

Picture
The Edward E. Ford Foundation helps improve secondary education by supporting U.S. independent schools and encouraging promising practices. By making traditional grants to eligible schools and associations, the foundation helps programs like Horizons at Westminster to grow and develop in pursuit of their own missions.

In April 2021, Horizons at Westminster was awarded an E.E. Ford Traditional Grant of $100,000. This grant will provide critical support for salaries and volunteer stipends in Summer 2022.  The grant comes with a requirement to fundraise an equivalent amount within one year to support the long-term sustainability of this important program. Horizons at Westminster is at a crucial juncture and acutely aware of the significant funding needed to fulfill its promise of expanding educational opportunities for students from under-resourced communities in Hartford and to deliver on Westminster's commitment to “service beyond self.” 

Horizons at Westminster will host 75 students in Grades 1-5 in Summer 2022 and will continue to add 15 first graders each summer through 2025—when the program reaches full enrollment with 120 students in Grades 1-8. As its fourth summer begins, the Horizons at Westminster program has had a profound impact on Horizons students and the Westminster community.​
