Latino Community Foundation
Region: San francisco, California
Grant Duration: Three Years
Amount: $75,000
The Palette Fund ‘s support complements existing funding from the W. K. Kellogg Foundation to ensure sustainable growth, enthusiasm, and support for each individual donor. The financial support will ensure that all Giving Circle members receive the resources of their foundation at no cost to them. The staff provides fiscal sponsorship, program support, donor education, grantee vetting, speaker series participation and access to policy experts for no fee to its circle members. Every dollar that an LCF Giving Circle donor contributes goes directly back to their community.
In addition, thanks to The Palette Fund, LCF will launch the first Latino LGBTQ Giving Circle (LGC) in California! By the end of the grant period, the Latino LGBTQ Giving Circle will have 35-45 members that will be granting out at least $30,000 to grassroots Latino-based non profit organizations supporting the LGBTQ community.
