$200K in grants available to nonprofits serving Kent County
The mission of the Potter Charity Trust, created in 1843, is to aid the economically underprivileged in Kent County by supporting charitable organizations serving these individuals. The grant making committee has established the areas of focus that will be considered for funding:
- Crisis/Emergency Assistance Funding for basic needs
- Homelessness
- Hunger
- Health Care
Grants will support proposals for charitable organizations and activities involving programs that have a lasting, positive impact on Kent County. The committee will be looking for collaboration among nonprofits and/or collaboration with a state agency, or non-collaborative programs providing emergency financial assistance.
The committee will award approximately $200,000 in 2018 to qualified 501(c)3 nonprofit organizations that serve Kent County. Each grant request must be submitted on a POTTER CHARITY TRUST GRANTS FUND 2018 Grant Application Form, available online at delcf.org/grants. Applications must be submitted online by June 15, 2018.
All applicants will be notified of the committee’s decision in writing by fall of 2018. For more information, please contact Tenish Gregory, (302) 724-7538 or [email protected].
