Sonoma County Vintners Foundation
Sonoma County Vintners Foundation (SCVF) is an accredited 501c(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1988. Its purpose is to consistently support local nonprofit organizations to help those in our community who are most in need. SCVF elevates lives to cultivate a vibrant and diverse Sonoma County with proceeds from year-round philanthropic giving by its community of SCVF Changemakers, its annual Sonoma County Wine Auction, and other SCVF initiatives.
SCVF’s two main initiatives, Community Grants and the Emergency Relief Fund, impact needs ranging from the immediate to the long term. More than 400 nonprofit organizations in Sonoma County have received support from SCVF.
SCVF Changemakers are the legion of loyal monthly donors who provide sustainable, year-round funding for our beneficiary grants and other programming support. Changemakers are aligned with our core goals of cultivating a vibrant and diverse Sonoma County while also helping those in our community who are most in need. Our automated monthly giving option makes it easy for Changemakers to support community initiatives in Sonoma County. Become a SCVF Changemaker today and create a positive impact in Sonoma County for generations to come.

What Your Support Means to Our Beneficiary Partners
Thank you for SCVF’s generous grant to Side by Side’s YouThrive and Community Counseling collaboration in Petaluma schools. By supporting our new three-tier mental health and early intervention project, you’ve helped us tighten the safety net for youth on the edge of or in crisis after over a year of COVID-19, distance learning, social isolation, and for many families, financial challenges.
Christine Isana Garcia, Chief Executive Officer, Side By Side
