The Leever Foundation was founded in 1991 by Harold and Ruth Ann Leever. Last year, the Foundation awarded more than $500,000 in grants and scholarships. The Foundation has been a leader in bringing proven program models to the community including the Osher Lifelong Learning at UCONN-Waterbury, Bravo Waterbury, an el Sistema inspired music program at Children’s Community School and the soon to be launched home childcare consultation effort in collaboration with Bridge To Success.
