The San Francisco Foundation

The San Francisco Foundation (SFF) is one of the nation's largest community foundations dedicated to improving life in the Bay Area since 1948. Our mission is to mobilize resources and act as a catalyst for change to build strong communities, foster civic leadership, and promote philanthropy in the San Francisco Bay Area. Together with community leaders, nonprofits, and donors, SFF has invested $2.9 billion in grants to create a Bay Area where everyone can thrive. SFF's equity grantmaking is structured under these interconnected strategies — building power, creating financial well-being, and preserving communities — that work together to make the region more equitable, healthier, happier, and more prosperous. (Less)
