Community Foundation Supports Golden Opportunities for Independence

The Dedham Savings Community Foundation has donated $7,500 to Golden Opportunities for Independence. The funds will be used to fund police officer trainings with Community Resource Dogs.

The Dedham Savings Community Foundation was formed by Dedham Savings for the purpose of funding requests from community organizations which provide services to the communities that they serve. These communities generally, but not exclusively, include Dedham, Needham, Norwood, Sharon, South Boston, Walpole, and Westwood. Typical requests are usually received from such organizations as schools, libraries, family service organizations and non-profit organizations. The Trustees of the Foundation will accept grant requests from community organizations and make awards twice a year.

Organizations wishing to request funding from the Foundation may contact The Dedham Savings Community Foundation, 55 Elm Street, Dedham, MA 02026 or call (781) 329-6700 to obtain a grant application.
