“
There are far too many students in our county whose incredible potential is limited by the financial resources available to them. The work of the Community Foundation and the scholarship programs it supports are essential to helping our youth forge brighter futures for themselves and their families.
Patricia Smith , San Joaquin Society for Human Resource Management
“
This opportunity is exactly why we've been fighting so hard to save the Delta in DC and here in the Valley. To improve the healthy of our community, to make us safer, to protect our water ... I am in complete support of this opportunity that will give our families a place to thrive, to work, and to play."
