Delta Community's Philanthropic Fund grants resumed in January, with investments made in the following organizations:

• Communities in Schools of Marietta-Cobb received a $5,000 grant for its Reality University program, which gives young students a better appreciation of the link between academic and financial success. 
   
• Girls, Inc. received a $5,000 grant for their Economic Literacy program, which teaches young women how to save, manage and invest money.

For many, the end of the year can be a busy and stressful time. Holiday celebrations, visits with family and friends and end of year deadlines make it easy to forget some important things - like making a contribution to your Individual Retirement Account (IRA) or Health Savings Account (HSA).

Delta Community annually awards $20,000 in scholarships to members pursuing their first undergraduate degrees.

The application period for the 2016 Scholarship Program opens in early March.

With Valentine's Day just around the corner, finances may not be the first thing on your mind. That's unfortunate, because how we handle our money plays a significant role in our health, well-being and even the success of our romantic relationships.

Delta Community's Annual Meeting will be held Monday, March 21, 2016, in the lobby of the Virginia Avenue branch, located at 1025 Virginia Avenue, Atlanta GA 30354.
