A charitable fund at the Delaware Community
Foundation provides an easy and flexible means to accomplish your
charitable objectives. It’s a simple way for you to make a
difference and leave a lasting legacy in our community. Your gift to
the Delaware Community Foundation will achieve positive results and
maximize your tax deduction.
We help you achieve superior tax benefits
Since the IRS considers us a public charity, contributions are
eligible for the highest available tax deductions. In most cases,
these tax benefits outweigh using your assets to establish your own
private foundation.
We make set-up and administration easy
Establishing a fund can be done in less time than it takes to
open a bank account. We take care of all the administrative and
grantmaking activities, eliminating the need for you to set up a
separate institution, formulate policies, file innumerable forms and
monitor the status of grant recipients. We save you precious time
and money.
We take good care of your funds
The Board of Directors, volunteers and staff of the Delaware
Community Foundation are dedicated to providing lasting stewardship
to the charitable funds entrusted to our care. We are here to
nurture these funds and administer them in a cost-effective way – to
guarantee that your investment in our community will provide the
maximum benefit to the people of Delaware.
We share your interests
We are here to help you become connected to the issues that are
most important to you. Your charitable interests and priorities are
important to us because committed, caring citizens are so important
to our community’s well-being.
We care about the community and its future
We are committed to providing a lasting source of income to meet
the long-term needs of the community. We will make certain that the
fund you create at the Delaware Community Foundation today addresses
the challenges of tomorrow, in addition to focusing on current
needs.
There is so
much more we'd like you to know. For more information and ideas
