George H.C. Ensworth Memorial Fund

The George H. C. Ensworth Memorial Fund, established in 1949, supports charitable organizations focused on enhancing the well-being of the Glastonbury, Connecticut community. Administered by the Connecticut office of Bank of America’s Philanthropic Solutions, this fund offers annual, one-year grants for programs that contribute to health and human services, youth development, education, the arts, religion-related activities, and environmental enjoyment. Applications for the 2025 cycle are due by May 15. Organizations will be notified of award decisions within two months of the deadline. To apply, organizations must follow the procedures outlined in the downloadable Application & Procedures documents available via the Bank of America philanthropic portal. The fund has specific constraints: it does not support capital projects and limits funding to a maximum of three consecutive years per organization. All funded activities must serve the residents of Glastonbury, Connecticut. Bank of America encourages applicants to reach out via the dedicated Connecticut grantmaking email for inquiries and application guidance. Only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations serving the Glastonbury community are eligible to apply for this opportunity.
