Our Areas of Focus
Economic opportunity
Everyone deserves access to opportunities to build economic prosperity, including safe, stable, affordable housing and the availability of patient, flexible business capital.
Vibrant spaces for all
Where people live, work, learn, and play is critical to how they grow, develop, and contribute. Our place-based efforts are guided by a focus on enhancing belonging, strengthening neighborhoods, partnering with communities, and building capacity for emerging leaders.
Investing
for impact
More than half of the duPont Fund's endowment is invested in mission-aligned investments, such as the creation of affordable housing or small business loans.

A Note From Our President
At the duPont Fund, we envision a world in which every member of the communities we serve feels they belong, and is engaged in shaping the future of their community.
We use our grantmaking, investments, research, and partnerships to help build stronger communities where all voices are valued. We look forward to connecting with you on this journey.
