December 19, 2013 – Oceanside, CA – The Oceanside Charitable Foundation (OCF), an affiliate of The San Diego Foundation, has released its 2014 Grant Guidelines.
The OCF invites San Diego County nonprofits to submit an application to express interest in applying for 2014-2015 grants on the subject of community engagement: neighborhood leadership and voluntarism. The OCF wants to advance the community aspect of living in Oceanside. The foundation is making a call to action to neighborhoods, nonprofits and community leaders to come up with creative solutions that engage people in addressing Oceanside issues. During the next grants cycle, the OCF will make grants that help to catalyze greater leadership, engagement and voluntarism within our community. This year, the foundation is placing special emphasis on funding smaller organizations that are already ‘on the ground’ within the community of Oceanside.
This Grant Cycle, the OCF will provide grants at three levels of funding:

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.
