At Pillars of Promise Foundation, Inc., we believe that everyone deserves a fair chance to rise, rebuild, and renew their lives. Founded by compassionate New Haven natives who understand the power of community, our mission is to restore hope and opportunity to individuals and families facing life’s toughest challenges.

We are more than a foundation — we are a movement of compassion and action. Our efforts focus on strengthening our community through practical, hands-on support and programs that make a real difference. From hosting local bingo fundraisers to fuel our outreach efforts, to providing essential resources like food, scholarships, and rental assistance — every initiative we take is rooted in our commitment to serve.

What We Do:

Feed the Hungry: Partnering with local soup kitchens and community centers to provide warm meals and dignity to those in need.

Empower Through Education: Offering scholarships to help students achieve their academic dreams.

Provide Relief & Stability: Assisting individuals with rental security deposits, laundry cards, and grocery gift cards to help them get back on their feet.

Connect People to Resources: Sharing information on community programs and assistance opportunities that people might not know they qualify for.

Why We Do It:

We know that hope can be fragile — but together, we can make it unbreakable. Every act of kindness, every donation, every volunteer hour adds up to something greater. Your support helps us keep the promise alive — to stand as pillars for those who need strength the most.

Join us in being the change.

Together, we can build stronger foundations, one promise at a time.
