What does HCCF mean in FUNDS

The Hanover Cooperative Community Fund (HCCF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that supports the Hanover community through grants and scholarships. The HCCF's mission is to enhance the quality of life for Hanover residents by providing financial assistance to organizations and individuals that are working to improve the community.

The HCCF provides grants to nonprofit organizations and scholarships to Hanover residents. To be eligible for a grant, organizations must be located in Hanover and provide services that benefit the community. To be eligible for a scholarship, Hanover residents must be enrolled in a post-secondary educational institution and demonstrate financial need.

The HCCF's Board of Directors reviews all grant and scholarship applications and makes funding decisions based on the following criteria:

• The organization's or individual's need for funding
• The organization's or individual's ability to use the funding to make a positive impact on the community
• The organization's or individual's track record of success
• The organization's or individual's financial stability

Grant and scholarship applications are available on the HCCF website. The deadline for grant applications is typically in the spring, and the deadline for scholarship applications is typically in the fall.

Donations to the HCCF can be made online, by mail, or in person. The HCCF accepts donations of all sizes and is grateful for the support of the Hanover community.
