Discover the various ways you can support the community center below.

A recurring gift makes a big impact on our work: it provides us with the stability we need to continue offering classes and activities week after week, month after month.

How to Donate and Support the SCC

Sponsorship is a great way to gain exposure for your business, show your support for the Sonoma Valley community, reward your employees, and gain new clients or customers. We have many different sponsorship opportunities available throughout the year:

  • Chili Bowl Express
  • Trashion Fashion
  • MUSE
  • Día de Muertos
  • Winter Art Market
  • Culinary Food Clubs
  • Queer Art Club
  • Summer Camps

By making a planned gift to the Community Center, you ensure that we can continue to be here for generations to come – and you leave a legacy that will continue to sustain the vibrancy of the Sonoma Valley. 

A planned or legacy gift is a donation made from your estate, and – as the name suggests – is often part of a long-term plan for your assets. 

A planned gift can be outright (such as gifts of appreciated securities, property, real estate, and so on) or deferred (such as a bequest in your will, or a beneficiary designation for a life insurance policy or charitable trust).

The gift can be made to support the Community Center’s full scope of programs, or in support of a specific program. 

A Donor-Advised Fund allows you to give when you can, and grant when it’s needed. It allows you to make a charitable contribution to your fund, receive an immediate tax deduction, and then recommend grants from your fund over time. You can contribute to your fund as frequently as you like, and recommend grants at any time that feels right.

We accept gifts of stock and cash via wire/electronic transfer. Please contact us to learn more; we’d be happy to provide you with our account numbers and any other information you may need. 

Volunteers are a vital part of the Community Center. Our events and many of our programs wouldn’t be possible without the support of dedicated community members who give of their time and expertise!

We are currently updating our volunteer program to include opportunities throughout the year, ranging from one-time gigs at an event, to weekly ‘shifts’ with one of our programs.
