Welcome Home

We believe Delaware County is a great place to live. We also believe that we can make it even better. So we work every day to improve our community. Sometimes that means sponsoring educational programs, other times it means granting funds for important community projects. On this site, you can learn about the full spectrum of work we do − and how to become a part of it.

The Community Foundation of Muncie and Delaware County, Inc. is celebrating its 25th Anniversary in 2010

Beyond I Can - $5,000

Youth Opportunity Center - $2,500
