A Catalyst to Strengthen Nonprofits to Better Serve Their Communities

Since 1937, Longwood Foundation has invested in Delaware and the Kennett Square area in Pennsylvania. Our purpose is to be a catalyst to strengthen nonprofits in our region to better serve their communities. We do so by providing grants through our responsive grantmaking process and by investing in nonprofit capacity building through leadership development.
