Individual Donors

Below are our leadership donors for the 2022-2023 campaign year.
These generous donors are leading the way to measurable, enduring change in the lives of our neighbors throughout Western Connecticut.

The Tocqueville Society recognizes local philanthropic leaders and volunteer champions who have devoted time, talent, and funds to create long-lasting changes by tackling our communities’ most serious issues. Inspired by Alexis de Tocqueville, a French political philosopher who famously admired American philanthropy, United Way’s Tocqueville Program provides its members with a way to embody that same generous American spirit of our forefathers that Tocqueville complimented nearly 200 years ago.
