Chaney Foundation is accepting grant applications for the Chaney Enterprises Foundation Fund 2020 and awarding grants based upon unique and independent set of criteria which will support the work of nonprofit organizations(NPOs) serving within the Chaney Enterprises service area.
The prime concern of Chaney Enterprises is to support the community since Eugene “Babe” Chaney formed the company in 1962. Frank Chaney and his brother Dicky formed the Eugene Chaney Foundation Ltd. in 1987 in honor of their father by supporting the communities where the company does business and where the Chaney families and company employees live. In 2014, the Chaney Foundation partnered with the Community Foundation of Anne Arundel County (CFAAC) to manage the Chaney Foundation’s grantmaking process and in 2018 created the Chaney Enterprises Foundation Fund at CFAAC.
