Needs
The Sacramento Delta Foundation, Inc. plans to build a fund to provide community-based organizations grants focusing on specific health concerns (Mental Health and Awareness, Diabetes, Cardiovascular Disease, and Obesity).
Our goal is to recruit members of the community to serve on the Sacramento Delta Foundation. Board. Community Board Members will take an active role in helping to build SDF's donor base and help us to outreach to a larger segment of the African American community, and other under-represented racial groups.
We plan to develop a campaign to increase donations to SDF for scholarships. We provide scholarships to high achieving, under-served, and needy high school seniors pursuing undergraduate degrees. We also provide re-entry scholarships to low-income heads of households who need a little extra help to get back into school and finish their degrees.
We want to raise sufficient funding to host an annual Public Policy Event to discuss social issues impacting the African American Community.
The Sacramento Delta Foundation needs office space to conduct monthly business meetings and direct service programs with youth.
