Stronger communities begin with partnerships.

 

 

Since 2008, the Kenny Family Foundation (KFF) has worked alongside nonprofit organizations throughout New Castle County, Delaware, to help improve quality of life and strengthen the communities we call home.

Through microgrants, in-kind contributions, and hands-on community involvement, we support organizations serving our neighbors, creating opportunities and making a lasting difference.

Everyone deserves a Thanksgiving feast.

At Thanksgiving, showing up means a full table. Every November, KFF partners with local organizations to put turkeys, trimmings, and volunteers where they’re needed most, for neighbors and for the animals at the Brandywine Valley SPCA. Here’s where we’ll be this month.

Fur-Baby Thanksgiving

People aren’t the only ones who deserve a delicious meal for the holidays. That’s why KFF hosts the Brandywine Valley SPCA’s annual “Fur-Baby Thanksgiving” feast for cats and dogs at the shelter. We supply the food (like turkey, yams, salmon, and pumpkin), and they supply the tail-wags and purrs.
