Greetings Rancho Bernardo Community Foundation (RBCF), members!
As most of you know, November 22 is our 31st Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon and we are pleased to announce that Carlo Cecchetto of KFMB-TV will be this year’s emcee. We will also enjoy live music by Joe Cardillo!
Don’t forget, the deadline for seating requests and the $50 early bird pricing is November 15. We hope to see all of you there!
Congratulations to all 20 of our Pathway of Pride plaque recipients this year. The recognition event was held on September 13 in front of a large crowd there to celebrate the occasion.

For 21 years, Poway OnStage, in partnership with the Poway Unified School District, has hosted its Arts in Education Initiative for the children of Rancho Bernardo and beyond. The program includes a one-week, free musical theater camp; assemblies that teach students about the various musical instrument groups; and bus-in shows complete with study guides and Q&A sessions with the artists.
“Poway OnStage is so proud to provide valuable Arts Education experiences for more than 4,000 students each year – 1,400 of whom are enrolled in eight schools in Rancho Bernardo,” shared Michael Rennie, President and CEO for Poway OnStage. “More than 70 percent of the students who participate in our programs say that these are the only Arts programs they receive outside of the classroom. We are so thankful for the support we receive from the Rancho Bernardo Community Foundation for helping to make this possible.”
We are proud to support the amazing work of Poway OnStage and the lasting impact it is making in our community.
If you have any friends or neighbors who may be interested in making a difference in the Rancho Bernardo community, please encourage them to join RBCF.
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.
