Philanthropist Delores Barr Weaver will be providing grants to numerous local nonprofits, made possible by her gift of $61 million to the Delores Barr Weaver Legacy Fund at The Community Foundation for Northeast Florida. 

Her contribution to the donor-advised fund in July 2023 is the largest in the foundation’s 60-year history.

“The Community Foundation’s expert staff and charitable giving solutions have enabled me to have greater impact in the region I love than I ever could alone,” Weaver said in a Feb. 24 news release.
