Davis Cooperative Community Fund

Representatives of local groups smile as they accept checks from DCCF in a past round of grants.

The Davis Food Co-op and the Twin Pines Cooperative Foundation are proud of the assistance to vital groups in our community through grants from the Davis Co-operative Community Fund. About $14,000 in grants have been awarded to organizations based in Davis or serving Yolo County, and dedicated to working on issues in agriculture, food and hunger, community and social problems or the environment.

2011 Community Fund Grant Applications are accepted through Friday, April 8 at 5 PM. Organizations interested in applying for awards from the Fund must meet a few requirements, such 501(c)3 status with the Internal Revenue Service, or incorporation as a cooperative. Grants are awarded in the spring (usually announced by mid-May).

For more details, please or telephone (530) 758-2667, and press 111 to contact or leave a message for Doug.
