The CenDel Foundation has launched a new fund dedicated to assisting Kent County nonprofits as they respond to the COVID-19 crisis. The CenDel COVID-19 Community Response Fund will offer grants to nonprofits in central Delaware that are aiding those struggling during the pandemic.
The CenDel Foundation is accepting donations to the fund – the Foundation will match community contributions up to a total of $5,000. CenDel’s mission is to increase philanthropic giving in central Delaware, improving the lives of those living in Kent County. As thousands of Delawareans continue to lose their jobs and health insurance, that mission has never been more important.
