FREDERICK, MD – October 27, 2021: The Trauma Responsive Frederick Fund has been established with The Community Foundation of Frederick County and becomes one of its more than 750 component funds.
October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, and today’s column highlights funds managed by The Community Foundation of Frederick County that provide grant support to Heartly House, a well-known Frederick County nonprofit whose mission is to end all forms of domestic violence.
Each year, the Community Foundation recognizes several people from Frederick County who are selfless in their contributions of time, energy, and talents because they want to make a difference in the lives of others. We are pleased to announce the 2021 Wertheimer Fellows for Excellence in Volunteerism who will be honored on November 18, 2021, at our 35th Annual Report to the Community. The public may join in honoring these volunteers through the livestreamed event on November 18 at 7:15 p.m., by visiting www.FrederickCountyGives.org/NothingTopsPhilanthropy and clicking on the video box.
