Darin G. Etzel Fund

This unrestricted fund was established in 1980, one of the Branford Community Foundation’s original holdings. The fund was created to honor Darin Etzel, the son of David and Mary Margaret Etzel, whose struggle with and untimely death at age 5 from complications relating to a rare blood disease moved the Branford community. The fund’s roots were later broadened to include the memory of George J. Etzel and Mary Margaret Etzel. The Darin G. Etzel fund has been used throughout the years to support numerous grants in all areas of the Foundation’s mission.
