Founded in 2007, the Oakmont Community Foundation (OCF) is dedicated to enhancing and supporting educational and charitable activities within Oakmont Village Association. Governed by an all-volunteer board of local residents, OCF aims to positively impact the community through financial support, with over $350,000 awarded to various clubs and organizations. The foundation also plays a significant role in disaster response, as seen in their fundraising efforts for wildfire victims in 2017.
The Oakmont Community Foundation primarily offers financial assistance to Oakmont Village Association-approved groups seeking to undertake projects, programs, or purchases that are currently beyond their financial reach. This includes, but is not limited to, buying equipment, hosting lecture series, or other beneficial activities that require funding. The foundation requires detailed proposals through their Grant Request Application process to consider for funding, ensuring that those with genuine needs are supported.
