Description
The Borkee Hagley Foundation Grant Fund, administered by the Delaware Community Foundation (DCF), supports organizations addressing the comprehensive and complex needs of patients and families affected by neurodegenerative diseases. Its focus includes clinical research, care, and social and emotional support services for cognitive and movement disorders such as Huntington’s disease, ALS, Parkinson’s disease, and Alzheimer’s disease.
The fund brings research and care together with services addressing the social and emotional needs of patients and their families, rather than focusing solely on one aspect of support. It is a statewide opportunity within DCF’s broader grantmaking to address Delaware’s greatest needs and opportunities, build opportunity, and advance equity. Previous grantees and new applicants are welcome when their programs fit the fund’s priorities.
