San Francisco
In 2001, Help For Children San Francisco, founded by Stephan Vermut and Alison Sanger, became the second region to join the cause. Over the years, the group has established a strong local industry presence and has distributed over $9 million through 238 grants.
The San Francisco Committee of Hearts’ signature eventis held every spring, with other fundraising events throughout the year. From inception, the Committee has been fortunate to partner with the San Francisco 49ers Foundation to raise community awareness of both HFC and our mission.
In 2010, the branch started a
Committee of Hope for young professionals looking to get involved with the
cause and HFC. The Committee of Hope
hosts an annual Golf Tournament and an annual Poker Tournament; proceeds of this event have contributed to the growth of San Francisco's grant making.
