Happy Birthday to our founder, Betty Knox! 🎂

Born in Hartford on November 1st, 1908, Betty Knox actively engaged in the city’s civic and political landscape. Serving six terms on Hartford’s City Council, Elizabeth "Betty" Knox dedicated her life to urban renewal, parks, housing, and the welfare of the city's young residents, which became the cornerstone of her personal, political, and professional pursuits.

In 1966, Betty Knox founded the Knox Foundation by creating a trust fund aimed at enhancing the city. Today, KNOX manages a range of greening initiatives, such as workforce development, 21 community gardens, KNOX City Planters, neighborhood tree plantings, the Greater Hartford Green Team, and much more! KNOX has grown into a vibrant coalition of residents, volunteers, corporate partners, and community organizations dedicated to growing a greener, healthier Hartford!
