THE CAMPAIGN RAISES MONEY FROM INDIVIDUALS, FAMILY AND OTHER FOUNDATIONS AND ORGANIZATIONS, AND THEN WORKS IN COLLABORATION WITH THE SILICON VALLEY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION TO MAKE GRANTS TO LOCAL NONPROFITS THAT APPLY FOR GRANTS. THE CAMPAIGN RAISES MOST OF ITS FUNDS BETWEEN OCTOBER AND JANUARY. THIS YEAR EMBARCADERO MEDIA FOUNDATION GRANTED TO THE SILICON VALLEY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION (SVCF) ALL OF THE FUNDS RAISED AS OF MID-DECEMBER ($577,808) AND SVCF RE-GRANTED THE FUNDS (PLUS THE ADDITIONAL FUNDS THAT WERE DONATED IN EARLY 2023) TO 106 NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN APRIL, 2023 IN ACCORDANCE WITH OUR RECOMMENDATIONS. THESE GRANTS SUPPORTED A WIDE VARIETY OF AGENCIES AND PROGRAMS THAT PROVIDE SERVICES TO CHILDREN AND FAMILIES IN OUR REGION, RANGING FROM SERVICES FOR THE HOMELESS, TUTORING AND CHILD CARE PROGRAMS, EDUCATIONAL ENRICHMENT OR REMEDIAL PROGRAMS, MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING SERVICES, CULTURAL AND ARTS PROGRAMS, SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS AND SCHOLARSHIPS FOR GRADUATING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS NEEDING FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO CONTINUE THEIR EDUCATION AT COMMUNITY OR FOUR-YEAR COLLEGES.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
