Since the Sacramento Region Community Foundation was founded in 1983 by local leaders, we have been the region's primary provider of philanthropic services. Like other place-based community foundations, we promote philanthropy that is visionary, strategic, and inclusive.
We manage 800 charitable funds for local families, businesses, and nonprofits. Annual grants awarded to nonprofits and students from our charitable funds have grown to nearly $24 million in 2024 and $275 million since 1983. To learn more about opening a charitable fund with us, please visit our website.
In some ways, our work is simple: We partner with people who care to transform the capital area for good, for all. But the challenges we address through our work are complex and tackling them in ways that make meaningful impact requires partnership. When you make a gift to our GivingEdge profile, you contribute to our community's Impact Fund. By making a gift at one of the indicated levels, you also join our Impact Collaborative and enjoy access to gatherings and seminars that put you in touch with conversations at the heart of philanthropy in the Sacramento region.
