Founders Circle
The PRESENT NOW Founders Circle is a diverse group of philanthropists, socially responsible individuals, community and business leaders, from varied industries, whose philanthropic interests are aligned with the vision and mission of PRESENT NOW.
The group is dedicated to the strategic growth of the Presents Program and has made it possible for PRESENT NOW to expand its reach beyond California and New York. In 2021, the Founders Circle facilitated our expansion to serve sheltered children in Texas, Alaska, and Nevada.
Each year, the Founders Circle makes an additional group present for the children at one of our Shelter Partners. In 2020 the first annual Founders Circle holiday gift was a $10,000 grant for new outdoor play equipment at the Good Shepherd Shelter.
