About Crockett Community Foundation
A defining feature of Crockett Community Foundation’s giving is the size of its community capital projects. The foundation has backed a resurfacing project for the bocce pool at Crockett Community Services District with grants of $205,481 in 2023 and $231,625 in both 2024 and 2025, showing repeated support for the same local improvement over multiple years. Another major line of support has gone to Crockett Carquinez Fire Protection for a new tanker, with grants of $158,377 in 2023 and $138,652 in both 2024 and 2025. That pattern points to a funder that uses discretionary grantmaking to support local facilities, equipment, and neighborhood-serving organizations in Crockett, Port Costa, and Tormey. The foundation’s mission is to enhance quality of life in the community for current residents and future generations, and its recent grants reflect that aim through project-specific awards, designated support, and small community grants. Alongside infrastructure and public-safety support, it has also funded local organizations such as the Carquinez Model Railroad Society and the Crockett Community Services District for building and project work.
What Crockett Community Foundation Funds
Community infrastructure is a clear priority. The foundation gave $54,328 to Carquinez Model Railroad Society In for building improvements and FRA support, and it awarded $21,470 to Port Costa for a community improvement grant in 2024 and again in 2025. Public-facing community events and volunteer fundraising also appear in the record. Carquinez Womens Club received $23,332 in 2023 for FRA drive, BBQ, gourmet dinner, and chairs, then $10,585 in both 2024 and 2025 for the same purpose. Youth and school-related support shows up too: Crockett Bsa received $19,611 in 2024 and 2025 for a trip to Washington, D.C., while John Swett High School received $6,941 in both 2024 and 2025 for fundraising. The foundation also backed Contra Costa County Library with $20,000 in 2023, 2024, and 2025 for return-to-source funds.
How Crockett Community Foundation Gives
Typical grants are in the small-to-mid five-figure range, with a p25 of $7,086, a median of $19,611, and a p75 of $23,332. The recent record also shows repeated awards to the same recipients across 2023, 2024, and 2025, including multi-year support for community projects and local fundraising efforts. Crockett Community Foundation operates as a community foundation and gives locally through discretionary and semi-annual grant programs. The grant listings also show a dedicated microgrant program and a fundraising assistance track, both of which accept unsolicited applications.
