Whitecap Foundation
Reading to Kids thanks the Whitecap Foundation
for supporting our program.
"The Whitecap Foundation seeks to
improve the quality of life in the Los Angeles region by supporting
neighborhood-focused organizations that address family needs. Whitecap's major
areas of interest are:
- After-school, weekend and
off-track education
- Family support, including
parent education, job preparation, literacy and enrichment opportunites.
To accomplish our mission,
Whitecap engages in a process that we call enhanced grantmaking. Through this
process, we combine technical assistance and training with our programmatic
grants. Enhanced grantmaking seeks to address challenges common to all
grantees: leading and managing the organization, personnel issues, programs,
financial planning, etc. We also encourage a networking community among our
grantees for the purpose of sharing information and expertise."
