About 2722 Bancroft Foundation
The Bancroft Foundation concentrates its giving almost exclusively on individual scholarships for students attending the University of California, Berkeley. Grants are targeted, tuition-support awards to small cohorts of UC Berkeley undergraduates rather than institutional program funding or broad community grants. The foundation appears focused on enabling access to higher education at a single flagship public university in the Bay Area.
