Supporting Local Educators and Students

自2015年成立以来，非营利性的加州海岸关怀基金会¹ 对整个地区学生和教师的生活产生了巨大的影响.

The Foundation, 由加州海岸信用合作社作为独立的501(c)(3)非营利组织成立, 为教师提供补助金，并为即将上大学的高中毕业生提供奖学金, 包括为现在或以前的寄养青少年设立的特别项目, in San Diego and Riverside counties.

“我们的董事会强烈希望帮助培养青少年,” said Todd Lane, Vice Chair of the Foundation and CEO & 加州海岸信用合作社主席. “The board established a special set of criteria for foster applicants including fast-tracking first year recipients to allow them to easily qualify for a 2nd year scholarship as long as they met some very basic requirements. We feel this provides these students with an added degree of certainty and support that is probably lacking in other parts of their lives as they work through their special set of challenges.”

One of those former foster students to benefit from the Cal Coast Cares scholarship is Alexis Tenney, 谁在拉梅萨的格罗斯蒙特学院上学. 她正在申请奖学金，以追求她父母所激励的职业目标. “获得奖学金证明我所有的努力都是有回报的. Because of the money I received, I will be able to earn my degree in Forensics with little or no student debt leftover,” said Tenney.

The Foundation has also directly impacted countless classrooms in the area through grants to teachers for classroom projects in the STREAM (Science, Technology, Reading, Arts and Math) topics. 从水培温室项目到机器人技术，赠款对所有项目都有帮助, chemistry kits and much more.

Teresa Basin, 穆列塔铁路牧场小学四年级教师, 是否有一位最近获得课堂奖助金的学生.  她称赞该基金会帮助她激发了年轻人的思想. “The learning that takes place in the classroom should not only be academically rigorous, but also fun and engaging for students. 因为(基金会)的慷慨捐赠, my students will be able to use the Robotic Legos as they collaborate in teams and solve real-world problems as they explore the world of engineering and science.”

The Cal Coast Cares Foundation hosts two signature annual fundraisers: a popular golf tournament and the Illuminate Pathways reception. The Foundation has been able to increase the number of scholarships and grants provided each year thanks to the generous financial contributions of community and business supporters.
