Power of Collaboration Campaign
a Corporate Challenge for our Community
Join us to make a difference!
Three Valleys Community Foundation hosts an annual Corporate Challenge Campaign.
Our inaugural campaign was launched by Amazon, as a special challenge designed for corporations and businesses in our region to support community causes. This unique opportunity launched the creation of our first grantmaking fund to target key community issues and strengthen 3VCF as a philanthropic and geographic anchor. In 2023, nearly $140,000 was awarded to 13 deserving local nonprofits in support of mental health and wellness.
Thanks to a generous lead gift by John Muir Health, we are expanding our competitive grantmaking focus in 2024 to include health equity and overall wellness, with an additional focus on environment and sustainability.
Join 3VCF to bring the collaborative power of our local corporations together to support community causes and local needs. With every gift received, 3VCF will set aside 50 percent for the Power of Collaboration Campaign – with grantmaking designed to address some of the most compelling and complex issues in our area. Contact Kelly Bowers, Ed.D., at info@3vcf.org.
The Power of Collaboration Campaign focuses on the community causes central to the vitality of our region – in 2023, mental health and wellness was our primary focus. In 2024, we will continue to build upon our prior focus on mental health and overall wellness, as well as distribute funds to nonprofits working on causes related to the environment and sustainability. Contributions will supplement many of the individual commitments made by local donors in our region who are interested in giving, granting, and growing our community.
Three Valleys Community Foundation seeks to maximize these opportunities – by providing thoughtful funding, informed giving and collaborative action on the most pressing issues in our region. Our guiding principles center around trust, transparency, and a Tri-Valley focus (Alamo, Danville, Dublin, Livermore, Pleasanton, San Ramon and Sunol). We believe in the power of three – and what can be accomplished when all in our Three Valleys (Amador, Livermore and San Ramon) work together – further strengthening our overall impact.
“Amazon is committed to providing support to the communities where employees and customers live and work. Three Valleys Community Foundation has the potential to transform the impact of the Tri-Valley’s philanthropic generosity. We know that organizations like these can act as a catalyst and convener among donors, non-profits, and the community to create exponential impact. Amazon is proud to offer a foundational investment towards the creation of Three Valleys Community Foundation and the Power of Collaboration Fund. We challenge other employers in the Tri-Valley to do the same.”
