| WHAT: | “Gather! Building the Community of the Future” – The San Diego Foundation Center for Civic Engagement hosts the second conversation in the Future40 event series. Gather! will bring us together to discuss how we and the places we work, learn, and live can adapt to create a more equitable and vibrant San Diego. The future will require us to be creative, flexible, and open to create a community where neighborhoods are vitalized, inventive thinking and collaboration is nurtured, and opportunities to solve challenges are discussed and realized. |
| WHO: | Experts in the fields of design, education and policy.
|
| WHERE: | A.R.T.S. Center 200 E. 12th Street National City, CA 91950 |
| WHEN: | Friday, June 19, 6:00pm – 7:30pm The event is free and open to the public. Space is limited. RSVP at dominiquen@sdfoundation.org. Tours of the A.R.T.S. Center are available. |
| WHY: | For four decades, The San Diego Foundation has grown a more vibrant region by supporting ideas, as well as the individuals who conceive them and institutions that propel them. Future40 is a series of public events that continues this legacy by engaging leading thinkers to raise provocative questions, highlight new possibilities, and challenge our assumptions about the future of San Diego.
The Future40 series marks the 40th anniversary of The Foundation, and extends the conversation through 2015 to help us explore the possibilities for our region. Future40 engages a wide cross-section of San Diegans, including thought leaders, scholars, and champions of change, who will raise important questions, discuss changing constructs, and identify emerging opportunities — and through these exchanges, shape a more equitable future for all. |

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.
