Youth Education
The Opportunity Foundation of Sonoma County strongly believes in supporting youth education. We work with schools in underserved communities to help meet students' needs, such as providing backpacks, school supplies, warm coats, educational field trips and supporting college scholarship programs. We strive to create equity for youth in Sonoma County.
