支持本地教育工作者和学生

Since its founding in 2015, the non-profit 加州海岸关怀基金会¹ has had an outsize impact on the lives of 学生 and teachers across the region.

该基金会, established by 加州海岸信用社 as a separate 501(c)(3) non-profit, provides grants for teachers and scholarships for college-bound high school seniors, including a special program for current or former foster youth, 在圣地亚哥和河滨县.

“Our board of directors felt strongly about helping foster youth,托德·莱恩说, 基金会副主席兼首席执行官 & President of 加州海岸信用社. “委员会为寄养申请者制定了一套特殊的标准，包括快速通道，只要他们满足一些非常基本的要求，就可以很容易地获得第二年的奖学金. 我们认为这为这些学生提供了额外的确定性和支持，这可能是他们在生活的其他部分所缺乏的，因为他们正在努力应对他们的特殊挑战.”

从加州海岸关怀奖学金中受益的前寄养学生之一是亚历克西斯·坦尼, who is attending Grossmont College in La Mesa. She’s applying her scholarship to pursue a career goal inspired by her parents. “Being awarded this scholarship validates all my hard work is paying off. 因为我收到的钱, 我将能够获得我的法医学学位，很少或没有学生债务剩余,坦尼说。.

基金会还直接影响了该地区无数的教室，通过资助教师进行STREAM (Science, 技术, 阅读, 艺术和数学)主题. Grants have helped with everything from hydroponic greenhouse projects to robotics, 化学试剂等等.

特蕾莎修女盆地, 4th grade teacher at Rail Ranch Elementary School in Murrieta, is one of the recipients of a recent classroom grant.  She credited the Foundation with helping her inspire young minds. “课堂上的学习不应该仅仅是学术上的严谨, 但对学生来说也很有趣和吸引人. Because of (the Foundation’s) generous donation, 我的学生将能够在团队合作和解决现实世界的问题时使用机器人乐高，因为他们探索工程和科学的世界.”

加州海岸关怀基金会举办了两个标志性的年度筹款活动:一个受欢迎的高尔夫锦标赛和照亮道路招待会. 由于社区和企业支持者的慷慨捐助，基金会每年都能增加奖学金和助学金的数量.
