Escondido Charitable Foundation (ECF) members marked another landmark year in grantmaking in 2015 as the nonprofit awarded more than $168,000 at its recent grants celebration at Classical Academy High School. This comes just one year after ECF announced more than $1 million dollars granted to nonprofits since its inception.
The 2015-16 grant cycle focused on programs that connect, protect or increase access to the rich natural resources and open spaces throughout Escondido.
Watch the video below to get an inside look at how these programs are helping Escondido residents:
In just nine years, ECF has supported 53 nonprofit programs to help make Escondido a better place to work, live and play.
Through the power of the Regional Affiliate Program’s collective impact, ECF members are able to play a significant role in growing a more vibrant community in Escondido.

On August 9, 2022, we awarded $838,704 in Opening the Outdoors grants to 24 nonprofit organizations that offer equitable access to outdoor spaces in San Diego County.
“San Diego Foundation is proud to once again support its partners committed to increasing community-driven efforts to enhance accessible outdoor space, encourage youth to learn more through hands-on education and create the next generation of environmental stewards in the San Diego region,” said Christiana DeBenedict, SDF Director of Environment Initiatives.
This year’s grantees will help address these inequities and enhance access to the outdoors throughout San Diego County.
