Giving Back to the Community

The Loma Prieta Club Charitable Fund is registered as an IRS 501(c)(3) organization (Tax ID#:912161677), so donations to it are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. We also welcome donations of goods or services for our annual picnic fundraiser. We are thankful to all of our generous donors who have supported our organization throughout the years.  

 Our most recent donations went to:     

  • Local schools: a hydration station for the middle school, garden equipment and classroom supplies for the elementary school, shade tarps for the preschool.
  • Local community: handheld radios for the local fire department, assistance to Neighbors Helping Neighbors.
  • Local churches: funds to help the needy within their sphere of influence.
  • Local youth: two college scholarships to high school seniors and a volunteer recognition award to a middle school graduate.
The Loma Prieta Club members also provide ongoing donations and financial assistance to the Skyland Food Pantry, which supports hundreds of area residents. For members, or others in the community who wish to provide support remotely, please consider placing an order for needed items from the Skyland Food Pantry Wish List on Amazon.
