The Minford Foundation At-A-Glance

The Pamela Minford Charitable Foundation was founded in 2006 “In the spirit of giving."

During Pamela Minford's life her love for her community was the driving force in her philanthropic endeavors. She was well-known for her energy, flare and generous nature. When Pamela fell ill she communicated to her niece, Deborah Minford Dailey (Debbie), her desire to continue her mission. She said, "Doll, I don't want people to forget about me." She wanted to be remembered for doing something positive in the community.

Debbie set up the Minford Foundation and the two began to reach out and support various local institutions. They started in New Hope, PA by supporting the Historical Society first with some renovations including a new roof for The Parry Mansion, Benjamin Parry’s eighteenth century Georgian style mansion in the center of New Hope. The foundation also sponsored the publication of Roy Ziegler's book New Hope, Pennsylvania: River Town Passages on the 50th Anniversary of The New Hope Historical Society. Then they supported the expansion of the Emergency Room wing at Doylestown Hospital. Unfortunately, Pamela passed before the wing was completed. ‍ To this day, The Minford Charitable Foundation remains dedicated to continuing the financial support of small cultural and historical institutions, healthcare endeavors and specific educational enterprises in the Bucks County and surrounding areas.
