The Smart & Final Charitable Foundation strives to give back to and nourish the communities we serve in California, Arizona and Nevada through our Pillars of Focus:

• Health & Wellness
• Education
• Hunger Relief
• Team Sports & Youth Development
• Disaster Relief

If your non-profit organization is located in a community we serve, is registered as a 501(c)3 and meets one of the Pillars of Focus, we encourage you to apply for a donation.

Exclusions

Although the Foundation would like to provide funds to every organization, we will not fund the following:

• Individuals or For-Profit Organizations
• Political Parties, Organizations or Activities
• Capital Campaigns
• Advocacy Programs
• Meetings, Conferences or Workshops
• Animal Advocacy Programs
• Teacher Appreciation, Dances or Luncheons

Due to the high volume of requests, please note:

• Only online applications are accepted
• A minimum of 60 days is required for review
• If your organization is approved, an email will be sent from the Foundation
• While we would like to fund every request, the needs are often greater than our resources and we may not be able to respond to every request favorably
