THE RITTER FAMILY FOUNDATION BELIEVES EVERY CHILD HAS THE RIGHT TO A QUALITY EDUCATION AND SOCIAL, EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICAL SUPPORT AND LEARNING, REGARDLESS OF THE ZIP CODE IN WHICH HE OR SHE IS BORN. TO THAT END, WE INVEST IN AND PARTNER WITH ORGANIZATIONS THAT WORK TO IMPROVE THE OPPORTUNITY, ACCESS AND QUALITY OF SERVICES FOR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITIES.

PLACE. PARTNERSHIP. LEVERAGE. IMPACT.

The Ritter Family Foundation is a placed-based grantmaking foundation that makes philanthropic investments primarily in Norwalk and Bridgeport, Connecticut. We partner with organizations that are working to achieve equitable outcomes for children and families and are doing so through community-based systems solutions. Although RFF’s investments span the cradle to career continuum, the Foundation has a special interest in early childhood.
