Celebrating 40 Years of Impact: Our Ruby Anniversary! This year, The Community’s Foundation (TCF) proudly marks **40 years** of serving and supporting the Delaware County, PA community! A Rich History of Caring:Founded in 1985 as the Parent Corporation of Taylor Hospital in Ridley Park, PA, our mission took an inspiring turn in 1997. Following the sale of Taylor Hospital to the Crozer-Keystone Health System, TCF began operating as a Community Foundation dedicated to making a lasting difference in Delaware County. What is a Community Foundation? We are a grant-making public charity driven by one purpose: to improve lives in our community. Through the years, TCF has remained steadfast in our mission by: - Awarding grants to support local non-profits. - Providing scholarships to promising students. - Connecting caring individuals with causes that matter most. A Legacy of Impact: Over the past two decades, TCF has evolved, grown, and changed names, but one thing has never wavered: our commitment to Delaware County and the people who make it special. Join Us as We Celebrate 40 Years! We’re gearing up for an incredible year of reflection, gratitude, and excitement for what’s ahead. Together, we’ll continue to build a stronger, brighter future for our community. Stay tuned for upcoming events, milestones, and ways to celebrate with us! Note: This picture was taken at our earliest office location at the Taylor Hospice/Taylor Community Foundation then located in Ridley Park, PA.#TCF40Years #RubyAnniversary #CommunityFoundation #DelawareCountyPA ...

Update from TCF's Project W's 2024 Small Grants Awardee, Murphy's Giving Market!The past three months at Murphy’s Giving Market have been full of impact and growth! Their food pantry served 2,672 visits from 725 households, including 971 children and 328 seniors and during Thanksgiving, they partnered with school social workers to distribute nearly 250 bags to families in need and repeated those efforts over the holidays. They also hosted health events, including a cancer screening that reached 21 patients—many from underserved populations—thanks to the dedicated outreach of their team. On top of that, they launched a Client Assistance Program, helping neighbors overcome obstacles like accessing eye care and recovering from car accidents. Behind the scenes, their board approved a two-year strategic plan to expand food options, empower our community, and grow sustainably. None of this would be possible without the support of Project W—thank you for making a real difference!Want to learn more about Murphy's Giving Market?

We couldn’t resist mentioning Maddie Pops again! If you caught our last post about her help on the TCF Scholarship Selection Committee, here’s something new that she recently shared with us:"Concurrent with the birth of my first child Patrick, my group at AstraZeneca went through a restructure and after 10 years, I left. Although the timing was not ideal, it allowed me to spend time with my son that I otherwise never would have done! This occurred in November 2022 and since then I have looked into returning to the working world, namely in a pharma related position. I love to stay involved with TCF, especially with the interview process of the students looking to further their education in the healthcare field. The TCF scholarship drastically helped me fund my education at Penn and I love being able to help the next generation and see all the wonderful things they have accomplished! Additionally, I help out at my alma mater by being involved with the Penn Alumni Ambassador Program in which we have conversations with prospective Penn students about our experience at Penn and about the student's aspirations and goals. In the spring, I also work as a Color Commentary for the Penn Women's Lacrosse Team, working alongside the broadcast team in order to ensure that fans watching at home are engaged and informed about the team's performance. These games are broadcast live on the Ivy League Network on ESPN."Thank you, Maddie, for all that you do for TCF and our Scholarship program! #TCF #CommunityLove #TogetherWeThrive #FutureHealthcareLeaders #givingbackmatters #momlife ...

Celebrating Our Future Health Professionals! On January 11, 2025, The Community's Foundation (TCF) proudly held its Scholarship Selection Day to recognize the incredible graduating seniors from Delaware County who are pursuing careers in the health professions. After careful review, 13 outstanding scholars were selected to receive the prestigious Health Professions Scholarship! These students have shown exceptional dedication to their academics and a passion for making a difference in healthcare. We’re especially proud to share that several of our past scholars, Monica Parcell Filips (Class of 2009), Madison Poplawski McHugh (Class of 2010) and Kramoh Mansalay (Class of 2020)—now thriving in their careers—returned to serve on this year’s Selection Committee, giving back to support the next generation of healthcare leaders. 💙 Thank you to all of our committee members for your time, effort, and dedication to these amazing students.

Unloading, sorting, and stocking food donations at Loaves and Fishes Food Pantry. 2. Assisted local seniors with yard cleanup and planting flowers in their gardens. 3.
