| DJF is proud to be able to award service grants

dedication our members continue to put into our annual fundraiser
event and ongoing cookbook sales. (Click Spring

| DJF begins its grant selection process late September
of each year with applications being solicited from qualified non-profit
agencies. A thorough review and selection process is carried out by
our Community Outreach Committee. Recipient announcements and funding
