Healthbridge Foundation of Greater Waterbury
Funding Gaps in Healthcare
Healthbridge Foundation of Greater Waterbury is a 501(c)3 non-profit established in 2019. We’re committed to making healthcare accessible and investing in the people who will care for our community tomorrow.
We do this in three ways: covering medical expenses for those who can’t pay, funding community programs that help people achieve their best health and providing scholarships for students pursuing health professions. It’s a comprehensive approach to meeting local health needs, grounded in equity, inclusion, and real impact.
As a supporting organization of Connecticut Community Foundation, we share a common commitment to improving healthcare for everyone across Greater Waterbury.
The Foundation provides services to 13 towns in the Greater Waterbury region, including: Beacon Falls, Bethlehem, Cheshire, Middlebury, Naugatuck, Plymouth, Prospect, Southbury, Thomaston, Waterbury, Watertown, Wolcott, Woodbury.
