The Foundation of City College of San Francisco

The Foundation of City College of San Francisco is the independent 501(c)(3) public benefit corporation that raises private support for City College of San Francisco (CCSF). It operates as the college’s primary fundraising and stewardship vehicle, maintaining endowed funds and donor-restricted gifts to expand access and opportunity for CCSF students. The Foundation runs scholarship and program-support initiatives, most prominently the Foundation Promise Scholarship: a cohort-based merit program that provides qualifying, transfer-bound CCSF students with $10,000 over two years and guarantees course registration and support aimed at timely transfer to four‑year institutions. The Foundation also manages donor-directed funds for programs such as Guardian Scholars, Veterans’ support, nursing and STEM scholarships, the Chinatown campus initiative, and arts and library support. The EIN provided (94-1682567) matches the Foundation’s tax ID as published on the organization’s public materials and Form 990 disclosures. Recent filings and financial statements (fiscal year ending June 2024 and audited statements through 2023) show the Foundation continuing active grantmaking and scholarship distributions: recent reported annual revenue in the low millions, and institutional net assets/endowment capital supporting multi-year scholarship and program commitments (donor-restricted distributions in 2023 totaled in the low millions to support scholarships and program grants).
