About The Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore:  The Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore (CFES) is the community foundation serving the Lower Shore of Maryland since 1984, granting more than $27 million over the past ten years.  Through the generosity and vision of our donors, CFES awarded grants totaling more than $3.5 million in fiscal year 2011. CFES brings together donors and builds on community assets through scholarships, grants, advocacy, and leadership development.  By focusing on people, organizations, neighborhoods, and nonprofit capacity building, the Foundation addresses community needs in the areas of health, education, arts and culture, community development, and the environment.  In response to the economic downturn, CFES is currently focusing funding on safety net partner organizations.
