Purpose
The Mayor’s Do Good Fund is a charitable 501(c)(3) established to enhance the quality of life in Stratford by supporting projects and programs that may not otherwise receive traditional funding. The Do Good Fund provides resources for residents and community initiatives that create lasting positive impact, with a focus on compassion, opportunity, and community engagement.
Contributions may be used to support initiatives such as:
Scholarships and youth participation in educational, recreational, and enrichment programs
Assistance for individuals and families experiencing unexpected hardship
Community beautification and neighborhood improvement projects
Volunteer and service initiatives
Health, wellness, and quality-of-life programs
Educational opportunities and community partnerships
Other charitable initiatives that strengthen Stratford and support its residents
Our Promise
Every donation stays focused on one simple idea:
Neighbors helping neighbors.
Whether it’s helping a child participate in a program they otherwise couldn’t afford, assisting a family facing hardship, supporting a community improvement project, or responding to emerging needs, every contribution makes Stratford a stronger, kinder, and more connected community.
