SCF NONPROFIT PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
About the Nonprofit Partnership Program
This program is supported by annual membership contributions and is designed to strengthen, develop and serve Solano County nonprofits through capacity-building efforts and enhancing organization visibility. The Foundation will act as convener of community forums to gather and disperse information from the diverse voices in Solano County.
NPP promotes partnerships among community leaders and decision makers, donors, the business sector, and our local nonprofits. Competitive grants will be made annually to community nonprofits, from member contributions to the Program, and awarded based on the results of a survey and focused conversation to identify the highest needs in each city of Solano County.
