To expand opportunity and build hope by attracting resources to Stockton and investing in our city's people.
Reinvent Stockton Foundation is defined by place-based funding that ties Stockton community needs to broader philanthropic tools, including guaranteed income pilots, youth nonprofit capacity building, and rapid-response relief. In 2023, one of its largest recent grants went to Metro United Way Inc. for a guaranteed income pilot in Louisville, showing that the foundation’s approach is not limited to Stockton alone. The same pattern appears in awards to Mayor's Fund for Los Angeles, Human Services Coalition of Tompkins County Inc., and Uptogether Partners, all for city-based guaranteed income pilots. At the local level, the foundation has backed Stockton organizations with sizable operating and capacity-building support, including Little Manila Rising and Restore the Delta. Its grantmaking also reaches educational and service infrastructure through Stockton Scholars and Stockton Service Corps, alongside emergency support through the Heal Stockton Fund. Across these examples, the foundation combines direct community investment in Stockton with selective support for pilots and partners in other U.S. cities.
Youth development is a visible thread in the foundation’s work. It awarded $340,000 to Little Manila Rising in 2025 for youth nonprofit capacity building, and $160,238 to Improve Your Tomorrow in Sacramento for the same purpose. Education support also appears through Stockton Scholars, a program that provides personalized educational support and financial assistance to Stockton youth for postsecondary success. Community-based capacity building is another recurring theme: Restore the Delta received $267,500 in 2025 for youth nonprofit capacity building after a $422,343 award in 2024 for capacity building within the organization. The foundation also supports civic and service infrastructure through Stockton Service Corps, which places and supports service members working with community partners in Stockton.
Typical awards are mid-sized to large, with a p25 of $20,000, a median of $56,000, and a p75 of $192,090. The recent record shows repeated support to several organizations across multiple years, including Little Manila Rising, Restore the Delta, Community Partners, Reading and Math Inc, Nzinga Incorporated, and Delta Sculling Centerwhere Everybody Sculls Inc. That points to ongoing relationships rather than one-off gifts. The foundation is a regular funder, not a DAF, and it does not fund individuals or make program-related investments. Application mode is mixed: Heal Stockton Fund and Regranting / Major Grants accept unsolicited requests, while some programs such as Stockton Scholars and Stockton Service Corps do not.
