The Foundation for Delaware County, which offers support and resources for nonprofits benefitting Delaware County, is in a unique position to build a bridge between those with a passion to give and those making a real difference in people’s lives.
Now The Foundation hopes to bring these two great forces together through the 2023 Give Book.
The Give Book is a catalog of Delaware County nonprofits and much more. It’s also a guide to strategic philanthropy. The Give Book is a means of channeling generosity in the most impactful way, connecting those who wish to give directly to the organizations affecting change on the ground.
In the Give Book’s pages are an array of nonprofits, each with its own unique mission and needs. The organizations have been handpicked for their operational integrity, impact, and trust within the community. All of them hold a 501(c)(3) status or are sponsored by a 501(c)(3) entity, ensuring your donations are used effectively and responsibly.
The Give Book represents the varied needs of our vibrant community. It’s your chance to see how your generosity can contribute to the shared future that is being built together.
Every dollar counts and every act of giving, regardless of its size, can create a ripple effect of change. You can make a difference, improve lives, and help a community thrive.
The Foundation for Delaware County encourages you to embark on this journey of giving with them and play an integral part in shaping a better tomorrow for Delaware County.

August Is ‘Make a Will’ Month
Two-thirds of U.S. adults do not have a will. Fortunately, August is Make a Will Month and The Foundation for Delaware County is happy to help you find ways to incorporate charitable gifts into your estate planning.
A will ensures your possessions are allocated according to your wishes, and provides invaluable peace of mind and clear instructions for your family during an emotional and vulnerable time.
It can also be a powerful tool for supporting the causes close to your heart. Your legacy is not just about assets—it’s about the values and principles you wish to pass on.
Through estate planning and charitable giving with the Foundation, you can echo your positive impact into the future, leaving a legacy of kindness and community support that will endure.
Foundation staff are happy to discuss various giving options and guide you through the process, working alongside your professional advisor.
Your generosity can help shape a stronger, healthier, and more vibrant Delaware County for generations to come.
