The Florin Road Foundation was created to support and encourage the economic and social development of the Florin Road Community.

Our Funding Criteria (click on to view)

  

 
  1. The Foundation is an efficient and tax deductible way to support and strengthen the local community.
  2. Contributors are freed from the time consuming tasks of sorting through competing requests for limited funds and administering their own local donations.
  3. The Florin Road Partnership underwrites nearly all administrative costs so a larger percentage of donations go directly to worthy recipients.
  4. Contributors of $1,000 or more may elect to have "named" scholarships and grants.
  5. The Foundation "gives back" by supporting the community that supports our businesses.
 
 
The Florin Road Foundation has funded scholarships for local high school seniors who have demonstrated excellence in academics and community service. The Florin Road Foundation has also contributed to senior programs, local elementary schools and special community events.
