    About One Valley Foundation

    The One Valley Foundation is committed to ensuring an inclusive community for our fans, united through a shared passion for sports. We aim to create greater opportunity and impact across the Coachella Valley through programs and legacy events focused on Community, Education, and Access to Hockey, with nearly every dollar raised remaining in the Coachella Valley to serve all nine cities.

    About One Valley Foundation

    A $333,333 restoration grant to the Palm Springs Plaza Theatre Foundation stands out in One Valley Foundation’s recent giving and points to a pattern of large, place-based support. The foundation pairs that kind of legacy investment with grants for cancer patient transportation, military support, youth hockey access, Pride programming, food relief, animal shelter care, and scholarships for female students. Its work is tightly tied to the Coachella Valley, with almost all recent grants staying in California and the foundation describing a community-focused approach across Community, Education, and Access to Hockey. The grant record also shows repeated support for local organizations serving specific needs: Desert Cancer Foundation received funding for cancer patient support, while Greater Palm Springs Pride was funded for fundraiser sponsorship. Other awards reach into youth and school settings through school district and booster-group grants, and into direct service through organizations such as Food Now and the Palm Springs USO. Leadership is listed as Grant Fuhr, and the foundation operates as a regular funder rather than a donor-advised fund.

    What One Valley Foundation Funds

    Education is a defined pillar in the foundation’s grantmaking. In 2025, it gave $20,000 to Coachella Valley Unified School District for Future Farmers of America youth programs, and it also funded classroom and school-based work through its Education Grants and Classroom Grants Program. Access to hockey is another consistent theme. One Valley Foundation awarded $15,640 to Coachella Valley Hockey Foundation Corp for youth hockey equipment, and it also runs grants that cover registration, gear, and other barriers to participation for Coachella Valley youth. Community support appears in direct-service grants as well: Family Services of the Desert dba Food Now received $11,000 for food bank support. The foundation also funded inclusive programming, including $21,285 to Palm Springs Pride for youth programming and Pride support.

    How One Valley Foundation Gives

    Typical grants cluster at a modest local scale: the p25 is $15,320, the median is $20,000, and the p75 is $34,000. The distribution includes a few much larger awards, especially the two $333,333 grants to the same theatre foundation across 2024 and 2025, alongside smaller program and sponsorship grants. The recent record shows repeat support to some recipients across multiple years, including that theatre foundation and the Grant Fuhr Foundation. One Valley Foundation is classified as a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Some grant programs accept unsolicited requests, including Youth Hockey Grants and certain Community Grants programs.

    Frequently Asked Questions About One Valley Foundation

    What are One Valley Foundation’s main focus areas?

    The foundation’s stated pillars are Community, Education, and Access to Hockey. Recent grants also show support for cancer patient transportation, military and USO services, youth development, food security, animal shelter medical care, and scholarships for female students.

    What is the typical grant size?

    The grant-size distribution is centered at $20,000. The 25th percentile is $15,320 and the 75th percentile is $34,000, which places most awards in a relatively narrow local funding band, with a few much larger outliers.

    Does One Valley Foundation fund organizations outside California?

    Its giving is local and 95% of grants go to recipients in California. The recent grant list includes one recipient in Arlington, Virginia, through USO-related support, but the rest of the listed grants are in California.

    Does One Valley Foundation accept unsolicited applications?

    Some of its active programs do accept unsolicited requests, including Youth Hockey Grants and certain Community Grants pathways. Other programs, such as Education Grants and Classroom Grants, are listed as not accepting unsolicited applications.

    Do recent grants show repeat support to the same organizations?

    Yes. The Palm Springs Plaza Theatre Foundation received $333,333 in both 2024 and 2025, and the Grant Fuhr Foundation received $20,000 in 2024 and $20,000 in 2025. That suggests at least some multi-year relationships in the recent record.
