WELCOME to the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore. As a nonprofit charitable organization, the Foundation is the largest non-governmental source of support for nonprofit organizations in the Maryland lower shore counties of Somerset, Wicomico and Worcester.
Gifts to the Community Foundation create permanent endowment funds that steadily grow in value over time and produce income for grants to local charitable nonprofit organizations.
In fiscal 2007 the Foundation made a total of 995 grants to the community representing $3.2 million that was distributed to nonprofit and faith-based organizations to help improve the quality of life for the citizens of this region.
We are pleased to provide the information in this web site that will help to increase awareness of the benefits to donors, nonprofits and the community that results from charitable giving through the Community Foundation.
