Welcome to the Davenport International Foundation!

Welcome to the Davenport International Foundation (DIF) website. DIF is a small foundation whose mission is to provide support for students and early career professionals in medicine and in the arts. Though the foundation’s financial resources are limited, we endeavor to accomplish tasks which are almost entirely overlooked or neglected by larger foundations. As a small foundation, we can be flexible in our efforts and minimize “red tape” with our grantees.

Our website provides information regarding our specific programs as well as relevant historical background information. Support is provided through the foundation’s outreach programs associated with various universities and conservatories. Students and early career professionals may obtain support only under the egis of one of these outreach programs. In other words, we cannot respond with support to unsolicited applications which are not coordinated in this way.

We invite visitors of this website to select the areas of interest to them.
