Since 1986, the Delaware Community Foundation has been connecting people who care with the causes they care about by helping them establish charitable funds and provide grants to the nonprofit organizations they wish to support. Many of our donors who care about education choose to create scholarship funds to provide opportunities for individuals, like you, to help with rising college costs.

Students may apply for almost all of the DCF's scholarships by completing one application. We encourage applicants to review the criteria for all of the available awards, and simply check-off the scholarships he or she would like to be considered for. Those determined to be eligible may be given multiple scholarships, and there is no cap on the number or amount of the awards they receive. The submission deadline for most of our scholarships is April 1, 2013. 

Complete details and criteria are available in the
Delaware Community Foundation Scholarship Compendium,
Scholarships to be Awarded for the 2013-2014 School Year.

Application Form Now Available!

NOTE: Separate applications for ELIASON, ENDO and CSC SCHOLARSHIPS

Our goal is to connect people who care about education with people like you who care about their future. Please carefully review our Compendium; we believe it will be time well spent. If you have any questions about scholarship opportunities with the Delaware Community Foundation, please feel free to contact Richard Gentsch, Executive Vice President by calling 302.571.8004 or email rgentsch@delcf.org.
