Who Gives?
People like you. You want to help Delta in ways that speak closest to your own values and passions.
Families: Families join together to serve their community while building on their traditions and values. There is great joy in building a legacy to pass on to your community through you, your family, your children and grandchildren.
Businesses: Whether it is helping to establish an employee giving program or a corporate fund, we’ll work with you to streamline a charitable donation that will celebrate your company’s financial contributions while engaging a deeper passion in employee giving.
Why give & how to give
Your gift will help for generations to come.
Whether you’re considering a small donation, a large endowment, a legacy gift or anything in between, we’ll work with you to achieve your financial objectives and philanthropic goals. Our Foundation is known as Delta’s “charity for charities.” It’s because we ensure that your funds will go to organizations with the most profound local impact on the causes most important to you. Personal, caring, professional, and staffed largely by expert volunteers, we’re dedicated to making your gift provide the most help possible for people in need. You’ll be helping the community you love, generation after generation.
