Governed by its founders
The Board of Directors is composed of the Foundation’s founders, who have guided its charitable direction since 2014.
Governance
Stewardship is part of the mission.
The Board is responsible not only for today’s charitable decisions, but for preserving the Foundation’s mission, resources, and ability to serve future generations.
How the board operates
Independent, accountable, and unpaid.
Uncompensated service
Directors serve without compensation, so Foundation resources are directed fully toward its charitable purpose.
Public oversight
The Foundation files an annual Form 990-PF and is registered with the California Attorney General’s Registry of Charitable Trusts.
Board responsibility
Preserve. Govern. Give. Endure.
The Board acts collectively in matters of governance, investments, charitable distributions, strategic planning, legal compliance, and long-term stewardship.
The Foundation is organized as a California nonprofit public benefit corporation and recognized as a tax-exempt charitable organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.
