Monthly Update: Funding Support

CoastHills Community Foundation

The CoastHills Community Foundation was formed in 2005 as a 501(c)(3) guided by a board of internal and external volunteers to provide funding and support of our community outreach initiatives. Since 2011, members new to CoastHills have contributed a one-time $5 membership fee to support the reach of the Community Action Sponsorships, making the program a true neighbors-helping-neighbors initiative.

Community Action Committee

Through the one-time $5 membership fee, we are able to direct $30,000 each year to local nonprofit organizations via our Community Action Sponsorship program. This program is guided by a committee of employee volunteers who meet once a month to review sponsorship applications submitted by organizations throughout our entire field of membership (Santa Cruz County through Ventura County).

Employee All In

Nearly 200 CoastHills employees have pledged to pool monthly donations to support fundraising efforts in our field of membership. Twice a year, ten employees in the giving pool are chosen to present $2,000 to the charity of his or her choice. Empowering them with the individual opportunity to financially support initiatives that mean the most to them. Proving that every donation, no matter the size, combines to make a truly meaningful difference in our community.

Lending our time, effort and financial support to the Central Coast is what we do. And we love it.
