Empower Your Nonprofit

Are you a nonprofit leader looking to empower your organization? Our mission is to help you achieve yours! We pride ourselves on an efficient, effective, and equitable grantmaking process.

​

Efficient

Have you ever felt like you're jumping through hoops to get grant funding? Not at DCCF! Here at Decatur County Community Foundation, we strive to be efficient, and we want to help you be efficient. We understand that your organization is the boots on the ground, helping our neighbors on a daily basis. Any moment you spend answering an unnecessary application question, waiting on a response from our team, or fumbling your way through a follow-up form is a moment you're distracted from those you serve. We get it, and we appreciate you. That's why we do all in our power to ensure that our grantmaking system is as quick, painless, and easy as possible. We're here to help you succeed!

​

Effective

Your Foundation is here to meet the needs of our community. While we make our process flexible and easy for applicants, our committees and board of directors are always concerned about the impact of the Foundation's investment in your cause. You can expect us to do the due diligence necessary to make sure that your program will have the desired impact.

​

Equitable

DCCF is committed to providing a better future for all of our neighbors right here in Decatur County. Our grantmaking efforts are as diverse as the people they benefit because we believe that each individual in our community deserves every chance at success.  Our grants don't play favorites. We leverage the power of philanthropy to create a better tomorrow for all people in our community.
