History - Founding Donors

In the late 1980's, when the DCF was building its resources to meet Delaware's needs, our Founding Donors had the vision to invest in the state's charitable future. These corporations, foundations and individuals provided critical gifts of unrestricted, field-of-interest and operating endowments. On behalf of the people of Delaware, we thank them. (Corporations are listed as they were known when they became Founding Donors.)
