The Sobrato Family Foundation appears to operate primarily as a funder that channels large, flexible gifts through a community foundation donor-advised vehicle rather than making direct programmatic grants. All recorded giving in this period is concentrated to the Silicon Valley Community Foundation as general support to a donor-advised/resonance philanthropy account, indicating the foundation uses intermediary structures for grantmaking and philanthropic pooling. This suggests the foundation prioritizes strategic, centralized grantmaking and possibly supports varied causes via advised funds rather than running its own program-specific initiatives.
A defining pattern in The Sobrato Family Foundation’s recent giving is its use of donor-advised and collaborative funds at Silicon Valley Community Foundation and ImpactAssets, alongside direct support for place-based work in Santa Clara and San Mateo counties. That structure shapes a grantmaking profile that is both flexible and highly centralized, with large awards routed through intermediary funds and local institutions. Among the largest recent grants, the foundation gave $5,000,000 for general support to the Resonance Philanthropies DAF #4176 at Silicon Valley Community Foundation. It also committed $3,000,000 to ImpactAssets to support impact investments, showing that the foundation uses both grantmaking and investment-oriented tools. Other sizable awards went to family and scholarship funds, including the Abby Sobrato Scholarship Fund and the John M. Sobrato and Timi Sobrato funds. In the local community, the foundation backed housing for low-income farmworker families in Half Moon Bay and supported public schools and districts in East and Downtown San Jose and Gilroy through school-based behavioral health wellness centers. The record also includes support for collaborative philanthropy focused on children’s health, sustainability, and bilingual education.
Education-related grantmaking appears in several forms. The foundation gave $900,000 to New Venture Fund to support the Emerging Bilingual Collaborative Fund, described as a funder collaborative with four foundation partners to improve the quality of teaching for English Learner children in preschool to 3rd grade. It also gave $875,000 to Global Impact for the Emerging Bilingual Collaborative. Special education and student support show up through a $500,000 grant to Valley Health Foundation to help public schools and districts in East and Downtown San Jose and Gilroy develop, enhance, or expand school-based behavioral health wellness centers. In higher education and scholarship support, the foundation gave $3,200,000 to Silicon Valley Community Foundation for the Abby Sobrato Scholarship Fund and another $482,000 to the same fund in 2025. Housing and community stability are present in a $1,000,000 grant to the County of San Mateo to advance 47 housing units for low-income farmworkers in Half Moon Bay and support an innovative home-ownership model backed by a public-private partnership.

Highly concentrated: very large gifts (single multi-million-dollar recipient), repeated grants to the same intermediary, indicating use of a community foundation/DAF for downstream grantmaking rather than many small direct grants.
Notable grantees: Silicon Valley Community Foundation (DAF/Resonance Philanthropies account)
Typical grant size sits at $2,500 at the 25th percentile, $52,500 at the median, and $145,250 at the 75th percentile, while several awards reach into the multi-million-dollar range. The pattern suggests a mix of routine smaller grants and a narrower set of very large commitments. The recent record includes repeated support for the same donor-advised and family funds across 2023 and 2025, including multiple grants to Silicon Valley Community Foundation, ImpactAssets, and named Sobrato family funds. That points to recurring support rather than one-off awards. The foundation is classified as a regular funder, makes program-related investments, and also funds individuals. Recent grants show a strong preference for general support and collaborative vehicles, with some project-specific and transition grants mixed in.
Giving is heavily concentrated in California, which receives 85% of grants, and the top recipient state by count is also CA. Recent recipient cities include Mountain View, San Jose, Sunnyvale, Fremont, Redwood City, Half Moon Bay, and San Francisco. Outside California, some grants go to Bethesda, Washington, Alexandria, and New York, but the grant record is entirely U.S.-based. The geography aligns with a local scope of giving centered on the Bay Area.
The recent record includes community foundations, school and health nonprofits, housing and service organizations, a university foundation, and collaborative funds. Examples include Silicon Valley Community Foundation, Valley Health Foundation, Destination Home, Sunnyvale Community Services, The Tower Foundation of San Jose State University, and the County of San Mateo.
Yes, but the grant record is still U.S.-only. California receives 85% of grants, and recent recipients outside California include organizations in Bethesda, Washington, Alexandria, and New York.
The typical grant size is $2,500 at the 25th percentile, $52,500 at the median, and $145,250 at the 75th percentile. The recent list also includes several awards in the $1 million to $5 million range.
Yes. The recent record shows repeated support for the same intermediaries and family funds across 2023 and 2025, including Silicon Valley Community Foundation, ImpactAssets, and several named Sobrato funds. That indicates recurring relationships rather than isolated grants.
Themes include donor-advised philanthropy, impact investing, bilingual education, scholarships, housing for low-income farmworker families, school-based behavioral health, racial equity, and collaborative funds for children’s health and sustainability.
