During these unprecedented times, civic and community leaders are stepping up to help lessen the impact of the COVID-19 virus on the health of our community - but we need your help. The Community Foundation of San Joaquin, in partnership with United Way of San Joaquin, has established a San Joaquin Emergency Response Fund, which they have seeded with an initial $75,000 investment. The Fund is intended to be responsive to the changing, long-term needs of our community, with an immediate focus on supporting nonprofit organizations serving the most vulnerable populations and to provide financial assistance to individuals and families most directly impacted by COVID-19. We invite you to donate to this fund, or if interested in specific issue areas, to the organizations below.
