Beginning January 1, 2024, the Fund for Women (FFW) at the Delaware Community Foundation (DCF) will begin accepting applications for its 2024 grants cycle. All Delaware nonprofit agencies with programs benefiting women and girls are welcome to apply.  

The FFW accepts applications from nonprofit, tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) organizations for programs that address the needs and enhance the worth and potential of women and girls in Delaware by helping them to lead productive, self-sufficient lives. The FFW’s one-year grant offers organizations an opportunity to obtain seed money for innovative, creative programming or funding to continue or expand programs where effectiveness has been demonstrated. Grants will not be awarded to individuals.  

The FFW will host two grant application workshops on December 11, 2023, at 10:30 AM and December 12, 2023, at 5:30 PM to assist organizations in preparing their applications. Attending the workshop is optional and will not affect grant awards.  Nonprofit representatives can register to attend at fundforwomende.com/grants/. The Grant Workshop recordings and the Grant Rubric will also be available by January 1, 2024. 

The grant application link will be active January 1, 2024 at fundforwomende.com/grants/. Only online applications will be accepted. Completed applications must be submitted no later than 11:59 PM, January 31, 2024.
