Supporting Businesses

Thanks to over 40 community businesses and hundreds of individual donors, the Calaveras Community Foundation has dispersed well over a half a million dollars to a variety of causes through competitive grants, scholarships and assistance.

Please support the Foundation’s Supporting Businesses below.

In recent years, we have also received significant support from two major Bay Area community foundations. The Silicon Valley Community Foundation and the San Francisco Foundation have clients who have directed donations to the CCF through their donor advised funds.

Here is a partial list of the Foundations Supporting Businesses:

CCF Director Emeritus Allen Breed: “We are grateful for the continued generosity of the Jackson Rancheria Casino and Hotel. Its funding of CCF provides a variety of programs meeting the needs of many Calaveras residents. Without the leadership of Rich Hoffman and support of the Tribal Council the Foundation would be unable to carry out its objectives.”

“Over the past five years, Jackson Rancheria has provided some $41,000 in support of CCF,” adds CCF President Brent Harrington. “In addition, many of its employees are making individual donations to us via payroll deduction. These contributions go directly into CCF’s grant program.”

Paul DeBaldo, CCF Vice President, accepts a 2010 check from Christy Maynard, Commercial Relationship Manager, Umpqua Bank. In back are Branch Managers Iris Larson, Copperopolis, Michelle Campbell, Angels Camp, Danielle Shapiro-Palm, Valley Springs, and Diana Scaparro-Cammisa, San Andreas.

Christy Maynard, Umpqua Bank Commercial Relationship Manager, states, “Community is at the center of all we do at Umpqua Bank, therefore we are proud to make a contribution of $2,000 to CCF.  We know this will promote wellness and stability in our Calaveras County communities, specifically in regards to youth development, education and the arts.”
