Love Letter to the Bay

The Bay Area is magic. And our love for this place runs deep. SFF partnered with Youth Speaks to create this: our Love Letter to the Bay. Since 1948, the San Francisco Foundation has partnered with donors, community leaders, and nonprofits to create a Bay Area where everyone can thrive. Together, our collective power fulfills the promise of the Bay – today and for generations to come.

"The SFF donor advisor model allowed us to increase our donating power far beyond the capacity of our actual income. We could gift appreciated stock to our SFF fund whenever our stock account rose. What a revelation!"
