Pacific Community Foundation has opened the holiday grant catalog to requests from local nonprofit organizations. To start this process, go to  https://spccf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/list/request  and put in your organization's name. 

Several fields will open up, including the amount you are asking for, a short and long word description and a box for your logo or image. There is also a box for your organization's web address. 

Contact info@spccf.org to get a copy of the handout that details the information needed and boxes to fill out. Or get started online, then contact us and we will help complete your request. 

Our host program does not allow multiple visits to one request, it's just a small annoyance. Options are to ask us for edits, or start a new request, while we delete the other. 

The site will be open for your requests until November 12, then close while we review all applications and decided which ones to post. The list will be open for donations November 25 to December 31, 2020. 

You will be able to see how well your request is doing in raising money during this period simply by looking at the main list, at https://spccf.org/  Click on the Donate button, which takes you to https://spccf.fcsuite.com/erp/donate/list/grant 

The promotion process is simple:  Every organization that participates spreads the word to its members, and asks them to promote the catalog to their contacts. Reaching out through many different organizations helps your proposal reach new potential donors. 

Our grant catalogs raise thousands of dollars for local nonprofits.
