Large streams from little fountains flow,
Tall oaks from little acorns grow.

OUR MISSION

The Haddonfield Foundation Fosters Charitable Giving for Public Purposes within the Borough of Haddonfield and Among its Citizenry, to Promote, Maintain, and Enhance Our Quality of Life.

WHAT WE DO

Haddonfield residents are fortunate to be able to participate in a unique range of wonderful programs, activities and services for residents of all ages and interests.

For nearly 20 years, with financial support from the community, The Haddonfield Foundation has provided “seed money” to more than 100 local organizations and projects:

Children and parents have enjoyed the Foundation’s support of Haddonfield Child Care; public and pre-school playgrounds; drug abuse prevention programs; soccer, tennis, Little League, varsity sports and drama club programs; the Haddonfield Public Library; and the new dinosaur sculpture to be unveiled next year.

We have provided financial assistance to Candlelight Shopping, the beautification of Kings Highway, First Night, and the recent successful program to install cardiac defibrillators in police cars and public buildings to save heart attack victims.

For senior citizens, The Haddonfield Foundation has helped to start and fund vital programs such as housing assistance, the Mabel Kay House, and Interfaith Caregivers.

And to support the cultural arts, The Foundation has played a key role with the Markheim Art Center, Plays & Players, the Haddonfield Symphony, the Indian King Tavern Museum, and the popular Haddonfield Fine Arts and Crafts Festival.

Most importantly, 100% of contributions are used to support worthy causes in Haddonfield. The Foundation is managed by a volunteer Board, and modest fundraising expenses are covered by endowment interest. Every dollar of your contribution is invested prudently and distributed thoughtfully.
