The Princeton Mercer Regional Chamber of Commerce Community Development Fund supports nonprofits that are located in the Chamber’s five-county footprint and play a critical role in education, leadership, economic opportunity, and self-sufficiency.

Established in 2013 with a gift of $500,000 from the Princeton Regional Chamber Foundation, the Princeton Mercer Regional Chamber Community Development Fund is an endowed fund dedicated to supporting not-for-profit organizations located in the Chamber’s five-county footprint. To date, over $250,000 has been granted to local nonprofit organizations. Not-for-profit organizations that demonstrate a critical role in the Fund’s focus areas of economic and workforce development may participate in an annual grant application process. Grant recipients are recommended by an advisory committee of Chamber members and confirmed by its Board of Directors with assistance from the Princeton Area Community Foundation.
