Applying for a grant

The Delaware Community Foundation encourages qualified nonprofit organizations within the State of Delaware to apply for the competitive grants that are administered directly by the Foundation, as well as those awarded by some of our component funds. See Grant Application Guidelines for further information.

The Foundation also administers Scholarship Funds that have been created by individuals and organizations to provide students and professionals with the opportunity to further their education. See Scholarship Information for details about these scholarships.

Some of the funds within the DCF that also seek grant applications from community organizations and distribute grants through a competitive process are listed below.

  • Fund for Women grant guidelines and a grant application can be found on this Web site in December.
  • Call 302/573-4475 about Housing Capacity Building Program grants.

The Delaware Community Foundation published a Directory of Delaware Grantmakers approximately every four years between 1990 and 1998 in conjunction with the Delaware Association of Nonprofit Agencies (DANA) . This guide to philanthropic activities in the State of Delaware was designed to aid fundraising professionals, volunteers and other individuals in their search for funding.

It listed the names and addresses of hundreds of grantmaking organizations in Delaware; provides detailed information on dozens of foundations and corporations; and defines each grantmaker's areas of interest, types of support and application guidelines and procedures. 

The directory is no longer published in book form, but is currently available on the DANA Web site.
